Back to the Fandango butterfly


I wanted to see the Fandango butterfly as a mini doily so I started back on the 'butterfly adventure'!!!

First of all the design needed a flower for the butterflies to sit on. So, here is the mini doily - so far!!!!  

Naturally, and being me,I'm not happy with it one bit. OK, the stitch count works but it looks sort of 'bare' round the outside. I've got an idea for that 'on the shuttles' at the moment. Just hope it works out!

I think it's beautiful as it is, so cheerful and colorful! I can't imagine what you will do to "improve" it!

This is going to be lovely - and it's how the chicken-wing doily started as well!

It is really nice. Can't wait to see what amazing thing you do to it next.

I love it! :-) I've tried a couple of the butterflies and LOVE the way they work. I like to use butterflies around my Gretta's photos (as that's what I have called her for years - since she was a puppy). Thanks again Jane for always being willing to share.
