butterfly kisses

woo hoo, i've finally finished
woozie's *fifteenth* birthday quilt.
it's delish and girly and packed full of love.
it even has her name on it!

(that's her butterfly blankie peeping out.)

there are four hearts on it,
for woozie's four brothers.

and fifteen buttons, for her birthday.

ribbons are arranged in fives,
for the five kiwi kids.

i've handquilted around fifteen flowers,
to keep the top half of the quilt layers
snuggled together.

and on the back, there's a secret pocket,
for treasures.

and butterflies,
to celebrate your emergence
from girlhood to womanhood.

i even went off in search of
some new fluffy sheets,
and found these, which were originally white
(but i soon fixed that),
and i've sprinkled a few flowers on the pillowcase
so that they match your decor.

and then i thought you'd like
a matching heaty-wheatie

and a cupcake pincushion,
for your own future sewing endeavours.
(ya never know, i might even be able to
squeeze an apron out of
the leftover fabric too, lol)
love you to the moon and back X
