A little Sunday Slow Stitching

 I spent the morning digging in the pile of purple scraps and tracing out the wings for Erin's Butterfly. I need 20 of them and found a good variety in my scraps. I stitched them together on the machine and then will hand stitch the inner circle part and then baste the seam allowance down all around so it will be all set for applique to a background at some point in the future. 


I'm doing these with the Rainbow Scrap Challenge but it looks like I missed green (there is another green month I think so I'll add that one then) and last month's red was missed. I might pull out the reds and prep that today as well. While I am thinking of that, I'll stitch the inner purple onto the wings.



Linking up with the Slow Sunday Stitchers.
