The trick
The body column is the spine: every wing panel clips onto a body square's side edge, and the two sides mirror, so the butterfly stays flat and even.
What you will need
- 7 square tiles
- 4 triangle tiles
Step by step
1. Lay the body
Line up three squares in a column for the head, middle and tail.
2. Add the wings
Clip a square onto each side of the top body square and each side of the bottom one, so four wing panels spread out.
3. Point the wings
Snap a triangle onto the outer edge of each wing so all four wings come to a matching point.
