This is the butterfly I just finished making the top. note the quilt inspector--grin closeup of the butterfly block.
the last is a dimensional Christmas tree. Leaf shape pieces are stitched, turned and then tacked in place.

Wow, love the fabrics in the beautiful butterfly quilt. Your Christmas tree turned out really nice too, interesting design - is it appliqued?

The pieces on the tree are just two layers of tear drop shape fabric stitched together and then turned and pressed. Then tacked into place using Liquid Stitch. That's the glue you use to tack up your hem when you don't have time to stitch it. the dots are hot glue crystals.
