    I'm thinking a little of the green swirl with a spot of the turquoise, in a butterfly or dragonfly. Only about 1/4 the size of the bird, so as not to steal the show. Loving your colors and the contrast of the linear with the curvy elements!!

    I agree, something on the top right. It is very pretty.

    I would add something in the upper right hand corner for balance.

    How about scattered butterflies towards the tob right in complimentary soft colors?

    What if you put a smaller applique at the top right of the quilt or a bird flying?????? It is a very nice quilt so far.

    I love it as is.....wonder if upper right would be better than bottom left if you
    decide to add something.
