Miss Butterfly B's

Hello friends!  My "VERNA" Quilt is coming along.  I have had some time to sew on it lately.  This quilt is my quilt I designed for my month hosting the quilting bee I am in.  A quilting bee is made up of 12 ladies  that each take a month of the year to host.  When it's you month to host you design a quilt block and mail out fabric packs to the other 11 members.  They get your fabric and make you a few blocks for your quilt.  Then they mail the completed blocks back to you to sew together.  My quilting bee quilt is called Verna.  I finally sewed all the blocks together for the front.  I then designed and pieced a very unique quilt back.  Here are some photo's of this quilt process.  Enjoy!  I can't wait to quilt this!  Any suggestions for a quilting pattern?  Email me Erin@missbutterflybs.com

Hello!  It's been a while since my last real update.  I have 3 new quilts and some new bibs and stuff to share with you!  First I would like to share the "Heart and Hands" Quilt.  This quilt was made for my daughters pre-k class for a fundraiser auction for the school.  It was such a fun quilt to work on.  For more details, the kind of fabric paint I used, and LOTS more PICTURES, click here.

 My next update is the LUKE Quilts.  There are two quilts!  I made a big quilt for a precious baby boy, and my daughter designed the tiny quilt.  While I was laying our the back of the big quilt, my 5-year-old daughter played with some scraps and came up with her own design!  I was so amazed and proud of her that I stopped what I was doing and stitched up her tiny quilt top.  She then picked out a backing flannel and I quilted it.  After it was finished, she gave it to the baby with a huge smile.  Lots of love went into these two quilts!  For more pictures and info click here.

I wanted to share with you a new quilt I have been working on these last few weeks.  It is so dear to my heart!  I can't wait to post ALL about it.  Blessings, Erin

I like to name my quilts and bags. One reason is to keep them all labeled, and the other reason is because they become my "baby" after spending so much time, energy, and love on a sewing project. Since this is a doll quilt, I found it only appropriate to have my daughter name it after on of her dolls. Today I asked her what her dolls name was. She said, "doll". Um, okay. I then asked her to name the doll quilt anything she wanted to name it. She said, "Quilt, just quilt.". Okay. So, here you have it, introducing the "Doll Quilt".

I am in the process of making a twin size quilt like the doll quilt below.  Hopefully it will be finished in a day or two!  Check back for pictures!  As always, anything you see here can be made into a custom order with your own color and fabric choices.  Email me to start the process of making your own special something!




 

I took some better pictures of the quilt I made after I washed it.  I also made a small lined zipper bag to match.  So, this will just be a gallery post.  For more info about this quilt and to see the quilt back see here. 





I take custom orders email me for more details.

THIS is one of my favorites!!!
SO modern and cute!

This is a wonderful boy quilt. Great thickness to put on the floor as a play blanket to have a baby play on. The front is hand cut and pieced by me in non-traditional blocks with white borders and binding. The main colors are blue, brown, and sage/pistachio green. I love love love the fabrics. The fabrics are from Michael Miller and Robert Kaufman. The feature fabric is an animal print called "zoology" by Michael Miller. The back of the quilt is soft blue flannel. I personally free motion quilted this with 3 different patterns. I used hi-loft batting. This quilt measures 48"x48" square.

***I can make matching bibs and burp cloths if the buyer wants to make this a baby gift set***
Just email me if you would like something added.
**I love making custom quilts and blankets! If you have other fabrics or a different design in mind, I can make it for you too.** :)

Cute, cute, cute!
Super soft white minky dot for the border and back of quilt. Machine quilted.
I have more of this fabric to do many more pink bedlam quilts. Email me if you would like a quilt like this or a new design with the pink bedlam fabric. I also make purses, zipper pouches, burp cloths, and bibs in this fabric.

This is the beautiful and fun Brooke Quilt set. The quilt measures 32" square with super soft pink minky dot on the back. Perfect for bringing home a new baby in. Three one of a kind Brooke style bibs to match! Cute!

54" square OSU lap blanket with black minky dot on the back. Top is pieced together from 10 beautiful fabrics then stitched around each 9" block to the black back.

This is a cute OSU baby quilt! It measures 36" square. It has soft black minky dot on the back, and is stitched in the ditch around each block. A must have for those little OSU fans.
