Kelly Renay is so creative! She has come up with some fantastic quilt patterns and I am so honored to have tested 4 of them. It's hard to pick a favorite, but the Flitter Flutter Quilt might be it.
I didn't set out to use this background. But after I picked my other fabrics - all are Anna Maria Horner prints, I felt like the navy with polkadots looked best from my stash. I'm trying really hard not to buy loads of fabric and wanted to use from my stash. This fabric looked great with my prints and happened to be big enough.
This was not a quick quilt to make, but it was so satisfying to see the butterflies take shape. The blocks didn't make much sense on their own, but then as I put them together the butterflies magically appeared.
One of the testers made the most amazing scrappy version of the Flitter Flutter and it has me inspired to make another one day. I haven't decided how I want to quilt this one. But I think I want to use a coral speckled backing.
If you want to see the other tester versions, Kelly made a blog post of each. She made a super sweet writeup about each tester and shows of their photos.
