I haven't tried this, but it's really cute. The butterfly is stitched as part of the row, not added on after.

That's really cute & different! I may have to give it a try.

That site has the coolest patterns.  This one is ingenious!

This is a must try for me.  A good way to use up scraps also.

this would be cute just as one butterfly on a dolly blankie.  Might try that.

That would also be cute as a baby girl's crib blanket....of course with a dolly blanket too for when she gets older.
