Teapots and Butterflies

I found two fun fabrics on a pieced squares scrap quilt.  This is another from the family collection that I have been repairing.   See - Whirling Hexagons and Log Cabin and Capital S.

Fabric number one - turquoise teapots.

Placing the teapots with these gentle florals and the little birds in a flowering tree (upper right) make this part of the quilt feel like a country cottage.

Fabric number two - butterflies.

Apple green and brilliant yellow on a red pillow ticking print!  Now there's a sunny day for you!  Not to mention a popular new color choice in the late 60s and on into the 70s.  My 8th grade graduation dress, 1968, was this green with yellow and bright pink flowers.  Yup.
