Huntersgrammie, I didn't have a pattern for the butterflies -- the top is vintage. The quilting was done around the butterflies, at the multiple sashing seams, and diagonals at the corner of each block. Quilting was very simple, since all people working on it except Mom were novices.

This is a beautiful quilt and the border is wonderful. I think I will use this idea on my big brown quilt which is ready for borders and I didn't want to use a solid brown border. Those little nine patch corner stones will really help making my border fit. Thanks so much for sharing.
