    The butterflies are big..if I use them as the little center squares they will be lost. And I really only want small amounts of the yellow and orange.....I think I will do an inner border of purple and an outer border, binding and backing in black! Thanks for your thoughts....I really appreciate everyone taking the time to share your ideas!

    OK..The quilt is done! I did the 10 min block with 2 butterfly corners, 1 purple corner and one bright blue corner. The center little square is black, Borders and binding are purple and the backing is the butterfly fabric because I know she will love it! I have the FMQ done and will bind it tonight. Will post a picture to morrow! Thanks for all of the great ideas...I do appreciate your input!

    I just love this board for all the ideas and suggestions. I'm glad you finished your quilt, can't wait to see a picture. Your butterfly fabric was beautiful, would you be willing to share the name of it, designer / manufacturer ? thanks
