Small Butterflies $15 US 30 Designs
|
These little butterflies might not look very eye catching at first sight, but they will come in very
handy. The possibilities are absolutely endless. Some might look alike, but they have different fill
stitches and some are without fills at all. All are less than 2 inches in size and you can even add them
to other floral designs. Since they are so small, they are ideal on baby clothes, napkins, collar tips,
lingerie and on linens too. By repeating the same butterfly, you can also create stunning borders on
towels, tablecloths and on sheets. Most designs have two colors, but some only have one color. They look
totally different embroidered in bright colors, like I used with my projects.

I am sewing up a storm at the moment and I am working on two butterfly projects, plus many others at
the same time, at the moment. I bought butterfly fabric in the USA and for this project for a girl's
bedroom, I picked colors that go with the colors of the fabric. Pictures of the finished projects will
be posted in a few days.

The project above is a pillow in the making. The inner block is a 12x12 inch design, which I created
for my PR-600 and I embroidered this design in two hoopings. The free hand stippling on the border was
done with different colors, one on top of the other. I used very bright colors and metallic Gold on all
the outlines of the butterflies.
