The Quiltmakers Butterfly Forest

Let your creativity take flight with eight whimsical projects inspired by the beautiful butterflies of the Amazon rainforest. Discover new quilting inspiration—from Ecuador’s Tiputini Biodiversity Research Station in the Amazon rainforest, where designer Felicia Brenoe was mesmerized by the sights that surrounded her, especially the butterflies. With this book, you can sew eight projects that capture nature’s beauty, beginning with the magnificent 12-block sampler of butterflies and wreaths—an ideal block-of-the-month quilt. Introduce contrast, embellishment, and negative space as you sew other large quilts, pillows, wallhangings, and placemats. Links to full-size appliqué patterns are included, plus an easy guide to raw-edge fusible appliqué.
