It takes forever but it’s definitely worth it. Pattern is very clear. I didn’t need to watch the videos to do any of this. It came out amazing and everyone is amazed by it. Make sure you actually read the instructions because it makes it very easy to do and know how to cut everything
I GAVE MY MOTHER THE PATTERN TO MAKE THE BUTTERFLY WINGS FOR MY DAUGHTER ON HER BIRTHDAY. THEY WERE A SUCCESS

The finished wings feel so sturdy and high quality. I'm really pleased with how they turned out. We used an orange with gold highlights in it and it is so beautiful.
4 stars instead of 5 because the pattern was missing a few instructions I had to figure out on my own. I also really would have appreciated knowing how much fabric to buy, instead of using up scraps.
A great pattern overall.
I made these wings for my daughter for Halloween this year and I’m so pleased with how they turned out. The pattern was incredibly detailed and made what seemed daunting quite enjoyable. I’ll surely be making more in the future.
Every year, I make my daughter a Halloween hoodie that she can wear year round. The butterfly was perfect to adapt for this year's costume. It works well with knits.
These little wings are the absolute bomb. I love the versatility with other butterfly markings too. I have "frankensteined" Birdwing and Ulysses butterflies. A little more attention needed as the quilting steps are a little different to the other 3 wings.
Great pattern, clear easy to follow instructions and the video tutorial makes them a pleasure to make my 3 year old grandson loved them
I love this pattern. It is beautiful, imaginative and playfull.
It's great for kids to play with it and to stimulate their imagination.
It is also a great decoration element at home.
I loved making the new Monarch play wings! I decided to make them in a soft, sensory-friendly velvet and a textured cotton and sparkly vinyl for the appliqué. The whole thing came together very smoothly and while there are some technical aspects that need some precision, overall it was a lovely project to work on. I would highly recommend trying the Monarch wings and adding your own twist to suit your child's preferences and needs.
