That's a pattern I've never seen before. I can't picture the sashing. What shade of green is it? I wouldn't use black for the squares because I think it would draw your eye away from the butterfly blocks. Do you have any of the fabric from the colored wings left? If so, I wonder about using the soft colors for the squares, or even for the sashing.It's going to be a beautiful quilt. I wonder what you are planning for the quilting pattern?

The butterfly is actually 4 blocks that measure 20"x20" when sewn together. I plan to sash with the green butterfly fabric I found awhile ago. I'm thinking black squares where the sashing meets. What do you think? Any other suggestions? This will be a lap quilt so 4 butterflies should be enough.
