Kaleidoscope of Butterflies
64 x 80
It's a flimsy!
Actually the butterflies are waste triangles against a sky of blue tone on tone scraps. It's been overcast (and very cold) outside so the colors look darker than they really are.
Now to find a backing and quilt in some flowers for the butterflies.

How fun is this! I love it! The perfect project for using up some scraps. It's delightful!
That was one of the first classes I ever took, though I think my butterflies were bigger. My fabric choices were awful and I ended up giving the flimsy away. I've learned a lot since then ...
I love that block - so simple, but really makes a striking quilt! All the different blues are so pretty together.
Hurry back inside where it is warmer! Great finished top!!!
Another blue quilt. The color is so relaxing. Love the little scrap butterflies.
I enjoy watching you cross quilts off your 2019 WIP list, and watching those finishes appear in your 2019 Finishes page, **almost** as much as I love your quilts in general, and this one in particular. I am consistently impressed with your color sense. So pretty! And I think you’re on pace to finish, what, like 100 quilts this year? Zounds. (No need to reply, just admiring from afar!)
I absolutely fell in love with your quilt! Butterflies in winter is a perfect finish! Congratulations!
I love all those different blue backgrounds and the pretty butterflies dancing amongst them. Beautiful! Wonderful use of tiny scraps.
As always, I am very impressed! Beautiful.
Beautiful shades of blue! What a cute quilt!
Wow - that's a lot of 4" butterfly blocks! I was planning to use up my scrap triangles with 6" blocks using nine different solids. But your monochromatic version is stunning. Makes me rethink my plan.
This one was a long time coming! I'm happy to see the kaleidoscope arrive :)
It looks wonderful . . . so cozy and soft. It will be like sleeping in a sea of blue . . . Great job!
Happy quilting.
Connie :)
Congratulations on your flimsy finish! Lovely, gorgeous scrappiness.
That butterfly fourpatch block is one I enjoy.
And it looks cold outside, your butterflies are going to freeze.
Oh those little triangles sure are wonderous in this quilt. The butterflies look like they are so happy to be fluttering around on a spring day!
This is so pretty!!
I love this Cathy. But I am still not saving tiny waste triangles :)
Such a great use of those waste triangles. Your quilt is wonderful!
