Bashful Butterflies
by Gemma R Owen
Featuring 3D butterflies, this is the perfect doily for a shadow box, adding to your rooms decor. It looks complex but it is very easily made with several up close pictures to assist you in placement of butterflies with slip sts as you go. The outer rounds alternate between main and contrasting color, so you will be working with two balls of thread at once to complete this doily, saving having to hide ends. When blocking you can either block the butterflies flat or raise up the top layer of wings so it is a stunning showpiece showing off their 3D quality.
