Afterlight Flight Wool Appliqué Pattern

Afterlight Flight Wool Appliqué Pattern | moon light's butterflies.

Each month I design a wool appliqué project to coordinate with the Just Another Button Company Button Lover's Club: Words with Buttons box. When I saw the buttons for the September 2018 Dream Box I knew immediately what to create. The button collection included a handmade clay moth button that I immediately fell in love with. I designed this appliqué pattern in its honor.

The fabric and wool upper wings are tacked so that they curl and hover over the lower wings as if this beauty is in mid-flight. Multiple layers and a mix of fabrics add texture. Button embellishments add a touch of fun. A hidden bit of wire adds shape to the antennae.

So much fun and detail in a quick to stitch project!
