Butterfly At Rest - WIP - bad update 1/27

Post by BookNerd »

I started this 3 or 4 years ago. Obviously, I haven't done much with it. Which shall change. :)

Here is a picture of what it'll look like:

And where I'm at right now:

I have no idea why the 2nd image is so big. It shows as cropped in photobucket. Between this and my Photoshop program acting weird, I'm just not having a good night with the photos. :lol:

I love this design. I did it as one of the designs on my now UFO Fairy Afghan. It was a lot of fun to do. There is another matching design also. Which is the next scheduled one for my afghan when I get back to it. I just love them. I am looking forward to seeing your updates on this one. :applesauce: You have made a great start

Beautiful design and great start. I hope you're able to continue on. I think someone finished this last year and had noticed some issues with the pattern? Hope it goes well for you!
