Quilt: 549 - Flying Free

Quilt Story: The colours in these butterflies impressed me. They were left from some project so I framed them and cut them for the centre square. I purposely didn't try to make them at all symmetrical as butterflies flit wherever they wish. The rest of the fabrics are all leftovers from my "stash". One of my favourite songs is Flying Free. These butterflies are flying free and are also symbols of hope - something all we breast cancer survivors need.
