Plastic Canvas Butterflies

August 29, 2023 by Shellie Wilson Leave a Comment

Decorate with colorful butterfly and flower plastic canvas sculptures!
This pattern book includes beautiful butterflies, flowers, photos, and a tissue box cover.
Each pattern is created with a 10-count plastic canvas and tapestry thread.

What is the meaning of the Butterfly as a symbol?

The butterfly has become a metaphor for transformation and hope in its metamorphosis from the common, colorless caterpillar to the exquisite winged creature of delicate beauty; across cultures, it has become a symbol for rebirth and resurrection, for the triumph of the spirit and soul over the physical prison.

Flowers: 5″ T to 6 1/2″ T; pictures: 5 3/4″ W x 13 5/8″ T; butterflies: 3 1/4″ W to 3 5/8″ W; tissue box cover: fits a boutique-style tissue box.
Mary Layfield created the design.
