Wedding gift

[Apak]

My friend was getting married so I made THIS for her - oh, for the bride and the groom. 

First I wanted to make one more butterfly bike, the same as I made some time ago for my cousin. But I couldn't buy the bike and when I saw this bench, I knew it would work. 

So here it is   It will last longer than traditional flowers…..

Krys,

the bench is about 30cm x 10cm (more or less)

 

The butterfly pattern is very easy. First I learned how to make the bigger version and then I made it up how to make the small one.

 

You start with ch 10, join with sl st.

1) 3dc, ch 3 - repeat 8 times, join

2) sl st in the middle dc, then in ch 3 space you make: 1 dc, 4 tr, picot (made of 4 ch) 4 tr, 1 dc - and that you repeat in each ch 3 space. 

 

That's all. Then you fold it and the butterfly is ready. Well, almost - you can make butterfly's body just with chains and sew it. I used beads on the wire. 

I always starch butterflies made of thread.

One more thing..

Is that the same pattern that you made for your daughter in that beautiful white dress at that church "procession"?.They were probably little bigger.  

I remember those pictures, she looked so beautiful:).

Yes, that's the same pattern. Maybe they looked bigger, but in fact they are the same.
