The featured quilt of the week in the March 14, 2010 edition of the Start Your Week With a Quilt newsletter is called So Many Butterflies. It was created by Anita Crosby.
Anita made this quilt for a special young lady at the Carrie Steele Pitts Home. After being exhibited in the 2009 Brown Sugar Stitchers Quilt Show, it was presented to its new owner in November.
The butterflies in the center of the quilt provide the focal point of the quilt. They are all types, shapes and colors, but all beautiful. Anita appliqued the different butterflies to a beautiful floral pink and yellow background. The borders carry out of the theme of the quilt perfectly.
I am sure that this quilt serves as a constant reminder to its new owner, that she, too, is a beautiful butterfly.
