    The pattern is called "Butterflies at the Crossroad"
    The book is "The Joy of Quilting" by Joan Hanson and Mary Hickey
    published by That Patchwork Place.

    It is a great book with over two dozen quilt patterns, clear directions and great illustrations.


    Don't you love it when a quilt turns out better than you imagined it!? I sure do! :lol:

    Your quilt is lovely. I like the blues and your work looks beautiful. I had not seen this pattern before. Thanks for the info on the book.

    Our quilts are truly a labor of love...that's why they are so beautiful.

    Thanks folks!

    My new hubby is colour blind so he thinks blues look purple to him. He really wanted me to give it away so your lovely comments made me feel better!
