The colors on this remind me of fall. What about leaves and vines in a variagated thread?

Thank you for the ideas. Now to work on it.
The backing will be a darker green batik with a few of the multicolored squares.

The design is called Butterfly_Glass. Found it online.
Cannot remember who designed it.
