    I've been buying up old hankies for quite some time - have around 200 or more right now - so thank you for the tutorial in how to make the butterfly to use them in such a striking design! i can't wait to get at it - wonderful!

    Thank you so much. My mama's handkerchiefs are dear to me and this would be a great way to show them off.

    I hand appliqued the butterfly to the background block, I also did along the "body" on both sides to the block.
