Butterflies and a heart

I finished my February block for Siblings Together very late: Thank goodness for Leap Year. Mags chose a heart block. I do enjoy trying these things out on a small scale. This month it's a butterfly, quick to make but you need to take care. Both are made with 2.5 strips and flipped over triangles. The central white strip of the butterfly measures 12" by 1" finished size. The first one I made suffers from an ill chosen solid fabric so I made a second one.

Not good - ugh.

Second version

I've just read Jo's original email which reminded me the butterfly came from a Missouri Star Quilt Company video.
