This year Beth Twist of Heartstring Samplery and I decided to put together another collaboration. We had so much fun with our Sewn in Friendship project in 2020 that we thought maybe it was time for another one. She suggested perhaps spring butterflies or bees, and this is how Float and Sting came to be. As Beth is a beekeeper, she opted for the Sting portion of the project.. I am not a butterfly keeper, but I decided to be brave and try to live up to the challenge of designing them.
If your stitcher would prefer to stitch both halves as one, there will be a free pdf available on our websites after market for a transition strip so that they can be stitched one on top of the other. (www.heartstringsamplery.com and www.plumstreetsamplers.com)
