Another "Gotta Try It"

I'd like to introduce you to my new little

friend. I know.. it's really sad and lame

that I would consider a fabric butterfly my

friend. (Don't tell my kids, they'll never let

me hear the end of that one!!)

I saw this cute little gal over at Lollychops

and just had to give it a go. She also has

a really cute Christmas tree version as

well, you really need to check it out.

You stack a bunch of your favorite fabrics

and cut a little butterfly out of them. There is

a template over at Miss Lolly's place

if you flunked art.

Then you scrunch 'em all up like a bunch

of spit wads. I did actually lick my hands

when I did this to make them roll better.

TMI?

I ironed them in their scrunchy state. Miss Lolly

says you don't really need too, but my fabric looked

kinda floppy if I didn't....so I did.

You sew them together in the tummy.

Kinda like a tummy tuck!


I dug into a bowl of dillies from back in the day
and found a cute little buttony, flower thing
to dress her up with.

I gave her some antenna's and VOILA!



Isn't she cute?
Now..... run over and check Lollychops out.
Look for the link to a cool mini pie in a glass jar recipe.
That's next on my "gotta try" list!
