    This is my 3rd quilt. I got a lot of questions answered from everyone. I did applique the butterflies on the squares that I starched the heck out of (very good suggestion). I hand quilted around the butterflies and machine quilted the rest. The binding was all done by machine. It was a lot of fun. I am pleased with the results. I have decided that I would rather hand quilt than machine and I don't know that I like the applique. Thanks for everyone's help.

    Great job! I gather it is for a little girl! She must be jumping with joy or "fluttering around"!

    :) 8-) ;)
    I like the choice on the backing and the butterflies on the wall too.

    You did a wonderful job the quilting looks great!
