Product Description
Bea Oglesby Welcome to the wonderful world of butterflies. Over three dozen beautiful butterfly patterns, including several Monarchs in different shapes and sizes, are just begging to be appliqud. With each pattern is a color photograph of the appliqud block, a full-sized butterfly pattern, and tips on appliqu technique and fabric selection. The reader will also find a fascinating guidebook-like description of each butterfly and its characteristics. The patterns are fun to do, with only three pieces in the Checkered White butterfly, and most of the butterflies having only five to nine pieces to appliqu. Many of the patterns have been simplified for ease of cutting and sewing; however, the author was true to the basic shape and the field markings of the species. The author's other books include Wildflower Album (AQS, 2000) and Birds and Flowers Album (AQS, 2003).

Great for realistic looking butterflies!  
I love the patterns in this book. Great color schemes! I thought it was very easy tracing these patterns onto fusible web, adhering to fabric, and then placing on my quilt top. I made a 50" x 50" quilt in a weekend utilizing 14 of the butterfly designs, and everyone that saw it raved.
