A butterfly quilt?

Saturday, Oct.22nd...sunny but cold here in WI. These pieced butterflies were a calender page a number of years back. Since it's done with vintage fabric, and scrap, of course, I LOVE THEM! So I saved the picture, and began a search for the pattern. Most butterfly patterns you come across are for appliqued butterflies. . A few years after I saved the picture, a gal I know saw it on my wall and said "I have that pattern"..and she did, and she made me a copy !! It turns out its from the Collection of Ruby Hinson Duncan. It was first printed in the Comfort Magazine in the 1930's. It has been a popular pattern ever since. I counted and there are 24 pieces..many of them cut reversed.

My friend found it republished in the May/June issue of STITCH'N'SEW QUILTS in 1988. I am hoping to begin picking fabrics for it this weekend, while gathers nickle squares for another stitching/blogger friend..*VBS* It is identified as Pieced Butterfly #1408 and is for a 10" block.
