    Months and months ago you helped me with math questions about this quilt so I thought I would show you how it is coming. It has been pretty hard for this novice quilter. I've gotten the 9 blocks to this point. I still need to embroider the antennae on each block and then I'll be ready for sashing and borders. Still haven't picked out fabric for that yet.

    I call it Nana's Butterflies because this quilt is for my DH's mother who turned 90 on Jan. 1. My kids call her Nana.

    It's coming along beautifully, very pretty fabrics and nice design. This will look stunning when you are done. Look forward to seeing how it progresses.
