No matter how the light falls on my Butterfly Kisses quilt, the play of colours and patterns pleases the eye. With only a dozen squares (of 117) yet to quilt with little crosses, the end is in sight. I'll soon be needing to start the fifth skein of embroidery thread - then onto binding before adding this one to my bed as our nights continue to drop in temperature.

Beautiful Karen! I can imagine this quilt will be loved and cherished for a long time!
It looks fantastic! The colors are fabulous!
I saw this Fat Quarter Shop video and can't wait to try it myself.
Thank you so much Maryse - I’m pleased you saw the video too, the crosses really are quite fun and easy to do.
It looks gorgeous! And you're in the home stretch!!
Your Butterfly Kisses is a beautiful quilt, Karen.
fagerike saker :-)
Another beautiful design.
Beautiful!
I can't help hoping that the butterflies are symbolic of transforming healing for your husband....
happy stitching ~ Tracy
quilts that play in all light nicely are such a joy to consider again and again.
Beautiful work!:)
Complimenti!
Gorgeous! I also love you color palettes and the fabrics you put together! Can't wait to see this finished.
Love the butterflies! It's coming together beautifully.
Most wonderful work you have done, dear Karen. I admire this beautiful Patchwork.

The colours in this Karen are just delicious!
this looks so beautiful. i love the fabrics and that butterfly is awesome. i was intrigued by this method of hand quilting....it looks so great, and is such a fun new way to put the quilt together.
Beautiful Karen! I love the colours in this quilt!
I've never quilted anything with the little crosses, and I like the idea! I generally machine quilt and it is exhausting! :-) I tied a few of the blankets we made last year for the homeless vets, but I think this crosses idea is ideal!
lovely, greetings from tulipland!
I think you will enjoy it Marie, I know I have. I used my ironing board to hold the weight of the quilt, adjusting the height to whatever worked best, tucking my chair in next to it. I found it easier to keep the quilt smooth like this without needing to use a hoop.
