Hey AGF fans! It's Jeanee here and I'm back with some inspiration for you.

TREND ALERT!
Joining
the snake
and the cat as a new “it” animal of the year is the butterfly! Butterflies aren't new to the scene. We've always seen them gracing prints in some cute whimsical way. But for fall/winter 2013 they will be taking on a surreal style as motifs of kaleidoscopic patterns, translucent overlaid wings and saturated colors.

HOME DECOR

We here at AGF have jumped on the butterfly bandwagon by using it as our icon for Pure Elements. For the Spring Quilt Market, this past May, our booth was filled with a rainbow of fabric butterflies!

A butterfly quilt block is a cool way to add a butterfly into a quilt. And fabric butterflies would make a great garland. The possibilities are endless!

How will you incorporate the new sophisticated butterfly motifs in your sewing?

Be Inspired!
