February 2012 Block done I think.  Wondering if I should add some beading to the 3 butterflies?


What do you think?

Finished January Block for the 2012 Crazy Quilt Project.  Started on February's block

Found this half made block, finished up the construction of it and now working on the embellishments.

I have edited my January block for the 2012 Crazy Quilt Project. (With the help of Lyn G. and Kathy S.). I moved the big butterfly to the opposite corner as suggested by Lyn.  And I read Kathy's article on making trees. Mine looks more like a Banzai tree so I came up with the Theme of "Butterflies and Banzi", I think maybe I should just stay with the Theme of "Butterflies"

The size of the block will be approximately  9 X 9

Well it has been a month and I didn't get much done on my bloody block. I was going for peach and browns but that color combination just didn't inspire me, so I didn't finish the block. I know what my college clothing construction professor would do-- Throw some buttons on the block and sew them on where they land. I don't want to do just french knots or lazy daisy stitches.  I kind of like the placement of the large butterfly that I accidently took the  rotary cutter to.The dark browns look black in the picture.... decisions... decisions.
