    ditto - I also think the sunflowers are "too much" for the rest of the quilt.
    Ditto here also.

    Love the light green background makes the other colors brighter!

    I think the green (second one) looks better because it makes the butterflies' colors more intense.

    the green seems to make the blocks look brighter.

    Just wondering here, are those butterflies embroidered? If so who sells the program? Thanks for showing your lovely work.:)
