Me & My Sister have done it again, designing two more “Makin’ it Cute” patterns,
Heart’s Delight and Butterfly Bliss.
Fat Quarter Shop ask moda to join the blog hop showing
different ways to make and use these new products.
Wow what a cute idea, for embellishing anything and everything.
First up I used all the Heart’s Delight templates and created a country quilted heart ornament for the tree or a package.
The fabric is Petite Prints by French General (shipping in December)
and two of the hearts are made with Kraft-tex,
a washable paper fabric product that has all kinds of possibilities.
I love piecing mini quilts so the first heart used 1” squares pieced
and quilted with batting.
Can’t you just see a Christmas package wrapped in red with this as a tag or ornament?
To brightin’ up my little granddaughter’s denim jumper,
I used Butterfly Bliss and Catalina Batiks (in stores now).
The templates are so easy to trace and use with all kinds of materials,
such as old denim jeans.
The big flutter-fly as my three year old granddaughter calls butterflies,
was made with scraps of old jeans and Timtex as a stiffener
in the middle of the two layers of denim then sewn together and trimmed to size.
I wanted it to look like angel wings on my sweet baby girl.
Then I appliqued the smaller flutter-flies in batiks to jazz up the front of the jumper.
The smaller denim one has the Kraft-tex in the middle layer which is also nice and stiff,
great for bows or a chew toy for teething.

Love the butterflies in batik – they look really cute!

I love the butterfly and heart! So cute! I would have to put the butterfly on my daughter’s wall although it does look really cute on that little denim dress. Thanks for the giveaway!
The butterflies are wonderful and I love the heart tag idea.
Your jumper turned out so cute. I bet your granddaughter loves it! I would like to make some of these to decorate packages. Thanks for the chance to win.

They are so cute! I think flutter bys all over this year’s xmas tree! (yes xmas is getting closer!!)
Love the flutterbye on the jumper! So cute!! Thanks for the fun!
This is so darn cute. What a wonderful idea!
They would look cute as a button on my granddaughter’s shirts. How could it be much simpler?
Such a clever idea and so simple. Easy enough that there is no excuse for not embellishing with hearts or flutterbys. The charms are delightful, particular the little prints from FG.
My grandchildren would love some butterflies. Too cute. Would be great to use the shapes as templates for free motion quilting on baby quilts.

I love the whole idea of ‘making it cute’ I think we need little buttons to wear too 🙂 thanks for such great ideas
Love how you opened my mind to use fabric other than cotton, such as denim.
I like the hearts. I agree with an earlier poster, we all need to be “making it cute” and wear little heart buttons.
These are so adorable and can be used for so many things. Thanks for the chance to win some fabric candy so we can make the world a little cuter!
