    I have many butterfly quilts made in the 30's and all of them have bright colors for sashing. Gray seems to be the color of this year, actually the last few years. I always lay my blocks out on a bed or design wall and then put colors beside them to see what works best. Good luck.

    Attached is a quilt I made with 1930s butterfly blocks I found at an antique store.

    That beautiful carriage needs a pretty doll and doll quilt to complete it. Great find!
