The old one was ok but blah!!
This one is really popping!!
The new added fabric did the trick. I really think you saved the fabric not wasted it.
Sometimes you just need to step back one before you can go forward. I think you got it now. But of course, remember I am a newbie, but I know what I like and color combinations.

There are interesting shapes that lend themselves to the OBW or SNW, and finally the butterflies vary in size. Not sure what the repeat measurements are. All that being said, I like your new design. WTG - you have not wasted your material. Do hope you post the completed quilt so we can admire the finished project too!
