it’s always good to finish something!  this time it’s just a new color-way for the mini butterfly pattern.  have never been totally happy with either sample i did before.  like this one better.  first, i think you can more clearly see it’s a butterfly.  second, if you stretch your imagination even more – it also becomes a stylized flower.

the circles at the top are applique and the lower ones are beads – in case small circles just aren’t your thing. ^_^  wanted to show at least one other option.  you could also just embroider them.

ok, best get back to the next one here.  doing a reduced size of the original ginko – my very first pattern that started this whole thing!  once it’s finished, i will add another row to that collection of mini’s i hang in the booth.  yea!
