A refreshing program! I’ve been loving paper piecing for at least 40 years, this is exciting!
Happy that you love it and glad that this tutorial can help you! Thanks for your comment! - Abby
I just ordered all of these kits. When making decorative pieces, I like to add beads. I think I will embroider thin antennas with a small seed bead at the tips.
Love that idea! We’re so glad you enjoy this fun series! -Michelle
I got my kit recently and can’t wait to get started on it. I raise Monarchs and Swallowtails so butterflies are especially magical to me. Last year I released over 1,000 Monarchs and 300 Swallowtails. I may use the extra foundation papers and make one in oranges and black colors to try and mimic a Monarch. Thank you so much for the great tutorial. :)
That sounds amazing! We're so happy this project inspires you and we'll be looking forward to seeing your lovely project photos!! -Michelle
Love butterflies, but wish it was a dragonfly
What a great idea. That would be stunning. -Kristen
A dragonfly would be awesome. I have mine ordered
I absolutely love butterflies and this project!! It is on my must have list for sure. Thank you so much for creating this project. I also loved watching Jennifer’s face light up as Diane fluffed up the embellished body. Happy Sewing!
We just adore this project. Thanks for watching. -Kristen
Got mine ordered! Love that it’s a butterfly and love the colors! I have to tell you, I love the stickers. I’m able to organize my sections, in order, and I can just sit and sew. Great great feature😊
Thank you. We are so glad you have been enjoying this series! -Kristen
Beautiful! Just ordered kit and can't wait to get started! Thanks Jen and Diane!
So exciting. We would love to see your final project. -Kristen
I just ordered this kit and after watching the video can't wait to embellish it to make it unique to me!! I love your products and your videos are wonderful teachers!! Thank you so much!
Yay! We're happy to hear this project inspires you! Thanks so much for your wonderful comment. -Michelle
Love the colors and what a cool idea for embellishing the butterfly body.
We're so glad it inspires you! Thank you very much for watching. -Michelle
On the add a quarter ruler the beveled edge was made to crease the paper exactly the way Jen used the cardboard. It say so on the directions - I have one. Love this project!! I’m going to order it. 😊
That is so clever! Thank you for the tip. We will definitely share that with Jen. -Kristen
❤ Absolutely stunning. Love all your videos. 🎉
Thank you for watching! -Kristen
One thing I learned is to crease on every line before placing fabric. Also using a roller press on each seam, iron at the end. Creasing first seems to make adding each piece a bit easier. Great video. Love this fabric.
Great tips! Thank you for watching! -Kristen
Awesome trim for a beautiful block! ❤
We just love the 3d element! -Kristen
Stunningly beautiful and the embellishment took it to the next level. Love it
We just love the 3D option. It is so spectacular. -Kristen
i made 2 purple rose. 1 for my daughter for mother's day. she absolutely loved it! very east to follow instructions. waiting for the pink tulip order snd ordered 2 of the butterfly kits. I'm hooked!!
We are so glad you have been enjoying this fun series! -Kristen
Beautiful! Love this butterfly!
We’re happy you enjoy it! Thank you very much for watching. -Michelle
Absolutely beautiful. Love the embellishment idea. Diane please come up with ideas for the Tulip and Rose!
We will pass the suggestion on to Diane. Thank you for watching! -Kristen
Beautiful butterfly. Thanks for sharing.
We're so glad you enjoy it! Thank you very much for watching. -Michelle
❤ So beautiful.
We just adore this project! Thank you so much for watching. -Kristen

Beautiful pattern I’ve never tried paper pieces this is sparking my interest love 🦋
We are so glad you have been enjoying this series. Thanks for watching! -Kristen
Stunning
It is just gorgeous! -Kristen
Great as usual
So glad you like this one! Thank you very much for watching. -Michelle
just a quick note - if you no longer have the cardboard to use and fold back your paper template, you can use the 'flat' side of your quarter inch ruler to fold. I have stickers on my ruler that say 'fold' and 'cut' so I don't forget which side I should be using, especially when I am cutting.
That is so smart. We will have to pass that tip along. Thank you for watching! -Kristen
Love butterflies and just ordered and received mine. Can't wait to get started. When pressing, do you use a dry iron? I also love the idea of a dragonfly for an upcoming month. I plan on turning my finished butterfly into a throw pillow.
How exciting! This would make a stunning throw pillow. Our quilters would recommend using a dry iron to press. Hope this helps! -Kristen
@@ShabbyFabrics , yes, thank you!
The cardboard back of notepad paper works very well to fold around to crease on fold
That's definitely a great alternative! Thank you very much for watching. -Michelle
A sturdy postcard also works.
This is fabulous. I am thinking of stitching this and adding it to the back of a denim jacket. Have you considered whether or not the additional embellished thread on the body of the butterfly would be washable?
That is such a great idea. We would love to see your finished project photos! Our makers recommend washing this only when absolutely necessary and by hand in cool water. Hope this helps. -Kristen
I truly loved watching both the butterfly and rose videos. Seeing that these occurred sometime before I am wondering if there are any kits still available. I would truly love to make for a friend who dedicates so much time to me. We are separated by distance and her birthday is in the same month. By chance if roses and butterfly kits are still available I would be very interested in getting the kits. Even if there are no kits could newer fabric be made up so that I could make the fronts up and I would make the completed front design with border included as two cushions for her bed. She loves the ocean, and purple and greens. I would want express postage’s to Australia. I’m really hoping you can help. I do love these designs , colours and foundation paper piecing to which I’m familiar. Fingers crossed you can help Shabby Fabrics. Julie ❤❤
We’re so happy you enjoy these projects, Julie! You can shop all of the kits in our Foundation Paper Piecing Series here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/c6583 -Michelle
Hello! Thank you for all your great tutorials! In almost all tutorials, I notice the iron you use... when you set it down while hot, it automatically rises so as not to burn surfaces... it looks like a great help while sewing! Does this feature come with the iron itself or is there some gadget I can buy for my own iron? I live in Greece and I haven't seen anything like it!
We’re so glad you enjoy these fun tutorials! This iron is the Oliso Iron TG1600 Pro Plus. The rising up when set down is a smart feature of this iron, but I’m not sure if they’re available in your country. Thanks so much for your kind comment :) -Michelle
Hi, are the patterns also available as PDF? It would be easier for internstionsl customers.
😊
Thank you for watching! Because our pattern includes the foundation paper and stickers we do not have a PDF of this project pattern at this time, but we will pass that suggestion along! -Kristen
@@ShabbyFabrics PDFs would be wonderful. I know it's out of your control, but postage to Australia is crazy expensive. I'd 100% buy PDFs. :D
Totally agree would be so much easier
Can you go bk and order the other kits? I just found out about these. How many monthhs does it last and do the videos always stay up to watch later? Sorry so many questions.❤
Hi Teri - You can shop our current selection of this foundation paper piecing series here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/c6583 -Michelle
I ordered the butterfly. Cant wait ti get it
What do you do to make the 2 antennaes on the head of the butterfly? Any suggestions? Beads on a wire?
Diane suggests embroidering the antennas using the Dazzle Thread that she made the 3D butterfly body with. A stem stitch or a chain stitch would work great for this! -Kristen
Do you have any kits left over I may be interested in this design. I’m not sure when this video was filmed. I’m in Australia. Yes, I know the shipping will be outrageous. So wondering if you can help I do love the butterfly. ❤❤
Can you use a thin metal ruler for doing the paper folding/crease before trimming?
Hi Katherine - You certainly can! Thanks so much for watching. -Michell e
Just came across your video on RUclips. I simply Love this Butterfly pattern, I raise Monarch’s) and am wondering if I could order the pattern?
Thank you in advance.
That is so cool! 🦋 Yes, we have a pattern for you on our website! Here is the link: www.shabbyfabrics.com/p151285/foundation-paper-piecing-june-pattern?c=6901 Hope this helps and thanks for your comment! - Abby
I know there are only three patterns I would love to have one for each month. And would this be a continued pattern? Or once they're gone they're gone
There will be a total of 12 blocks in this series so stay tuned for more. We currently have limited quantities of the kits, but the pattern will continue to be for sale. -Kristen
@@ShabbyFabrics thank you so much for that information I'm so happy that y'all will continue for 12 months and that we can get the pattern even after the series is done
Hello, This has nothing to do with butterflies. I’m looking for A Country Weekend by Wilmington fabrics the 5”pack.
So sorry but since that is an older collection we are completely out of stock. Best of luck finding some! -Kristen
How much is the butterfly kit?
