    The colors in your dresden are beautiful. I have seen the butterfly fabric and LOVE it! The colors are perfect for your quilt. Every time I see it I keep wishing I had a little girl to sew for! ;-)

    I think the fabric goes very well with the plates and the fussy cut butterfly in the center is very pretty, sparkles and all.

    I've got this fabric and haven't used it because I couldn't think what to do with it except admire it. You've given me a great idea. That fussy cut is perfect for Dresden plates. froggyintexas

    I think once you get if finished you will like the touch that the sparkles give the centers.

    It matches perfectly with your project. I bought some of that material and made my DGD a summer outfit.

    I just bought some of this for a project I am doing, but I have to say that I agree with everyone else...the fabric you already have is just perfect...but in the end...you have to thinks so...Donna

    Might be cute to pop those centers with white circles then applique on the butterflies. I've seen a solid white with sparkles that would bring the sparkles into each Dresden too.
    (In addition to the butterfly applique of course).
