				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Butterflies are in abundance with the summer flowers blooming.  They&#8217;re beautiful, but you need to look quick to enjoy.  Now, a butterfly quilt, that&#8217;s a different story.  Not flitting away, but always there for your viewning pleasure!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.quilterswarehouse.com/p-1809-butterfly-baskets-by-brandywine-design.aspx" target="_blank"><img class=" wp-image-3097 alignleft" title="butterfly baskets" src="http://www.quiltersshowcase.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/butterfly-baskets.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a></p>

<p>Grab your colorful scraps for <a title="Butterfly Baskets quilt pattern" href="http://www.quilterswarehouse.com/p-1809-butterfly-baskets-by-brandywine-design.aspx" target="_blank">Butterfly Baskets</a>.  Shown here in repro fabrics, this would also look great in batiks, or in any bright fabrics.  Instructions are included for a pillow.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.quilterswarehouse.com/p-1759-butterfly-town-by-brookshier-design-studio.aspx" target="_blank"><img class=" wp-image-3098 alignright" title="Butterfly Town Quilt pattern" src="http://www.quiltersshowcase.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/Butterfly-Town-Quilt-pattern.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a></p>

<p><a title="Butterfly Town quilt pattern" href="http://www.quilterswarehouse.com/p-1759-butterfly-town-by-brookshier-design-studio.aspx" target="_blank">Butterfly Town</a> is a little bolder.  12&#8243; blocks make this a fairly quick and easy quilt.  Three sizes are included: baby, lap, or bed.</p>

<p>The <a title="Heirloom Butterfly-Flower Embroidery pattern" href="http://www.quilterswarehouse.com/p-19537-heirloom-butterfly-flower-embroidery-pattern-chick-a-dee-hollow.aspx" target="_blank">Heirloom Buttefly-Flower</a> is pre-printed and pre-colored.  Just add embroidery!  This makes a great take-along project.</p>

<p>With a strip pieced background and raw edge fusible applique, <a title="Bertie the Butterfly quilt pattern" href="http://www.quilterswarehouse.com/p-6727-bertie-the-butterfly-by-thistledown-co.aspx" target="_blank">Bertie the Butterfly</a> has lots of personality.  Several of these 9&#8243;x11&#8243; quilts would really brighten up the wall of a little girl&#8217;s room.  Hmm&#8230;. might look pretty good in the sewing room, too!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>There are two size options for the Oriental Butterfly wallhanging: 18&#8243; x40&#8243; and 26&#8243; x 59&#8243;, plus a pillow pattern.  The petal edging looks fluttery, doesn&#8217;t it?  Perfect for a butterfly pillow.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>They are square dancing, doing the Butterfly Doe-Si-Doe!  Two simple blocks combine to great the butterfly look.  All piecing &#8211; no applieque.  Dig out those colorful scraps.</p>

And find your shoulder to light on,<br />
To bring you luck, happiness, and riches<br />
Today, tomorrow, and beyond.</p>
