Shirley's Butterfly Quilt

"You can't color a butterfly too brightly. Nature will always outdo you. The first full-sized quilt I made used 12" butterfly blocks. It's still one of my favorites. I've always loved the variety of design and colors found in nature's butterflies. When using them in a quilt, you can go wild with color and texture.


  • This is a good place to use some of those precious batiks or marbelized fabrics.
  • Add details with a bit of embroidery or play with some metallic threads and tiny beads.
  • Center up some small motif, such as the center of a large flower, on each wing to make a distinctive butterfly.
  • Perhaps you can alternate butterflies and flowers to achieve just the right effect.

Whatever you do, it will be fun if it includes butterflies."

- Shirley Liby
