    Cool Wonderful Butterfly Fabric Quilt top Complete - thanks for the feedback!

    A few weeks ago I was looking for feedback about what colors worked best with my Butterfly Carnival fabric - http://www.quiltingboard.com/main-f1...t-t239576.html

    I received many responses and thank you all! Funny but the final top was none of the ones I posted! The pattern was quick and pretty easy - took me a weekend to complete. It was VERY hard to cut this fabric but I think it came out pretty nice.

    The red looks a bit brighter in the pic than it really is, I used Hoffman Red 1895 batik, black batik, and sun island sun batik fabrics along with the Butterfly Carnival

    Now I have another to go to the LAQ! Enjoy!!!

    Wow, I think you made the right choice in the long run. That is really special. Some quilts look so sophisticated with black.
