Blue Butterfly Baby Quilt

My friend's sister is having a little baby girl, so I made this quilt for her.  I tried out some applique and a little hand embroidery for embellishment.  I think it turned out pretty cute.

I had 6 cordinating fat quarters so I cut:
9 6" squares of each fabric, I didn't quite use all of them and I didn't have enough of the blue for a full square so I made a template from a manilla folder for butterfly wings with the remaining fabric.

6 squares x 6 squares = 36 total squares

The white/muslin:
2 1/2" x 6" rectangles = 30
2 1/2" x width of row plus an inch = 5

Looking back I would have made one big square where the butterfly was appliqued instead of making the square...  It should have been a 10" x 6" rectangle.

I used 1/4 of a yard of yellow and made 4 WOF strips for the border
and a little less than 1/2 yard of orange for the binding, I double my binding so my cuts were 3."

Let me know if you like it!
