Nothing is sewn or actually committed yet.  I thought if one kitten was good maybe three would be better!. The black and white butterfly scraps are not big enough to fill the pieces in the pattern so I will have to divide the pattern pieces in order to use them. That is certainly an option that anyone should consider when making this pattern &#8211; adding more seams to best utilize your fabric and even eliminating seams if one piece of fabric is colored in such a way as to make the seam unnecessary.  The pieces off to the right are contenders for the accent strip, but I won&#8217;t decide just yet.<\/p>\n<p>This afternoon I will sew!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So far, I have made the coneflower samples from mostly batik fabrics which lend themselves so perfectly to this subject, but I decided that it was probably time to branch out and use other commercial prints.
