There is no pattern for this - I made it up as I went...I got the butterflies from coloring pages - free on the internet. I use these a lot for my applique quilts. I don't know how long it took since I worked on it off and on over several months. I had a hard time getting "inspired"....the request was for butterflies...so I was trying to think of something creative that a young girl would like...I started by making butterflies....then I got the field of daisies idea and did that....then when I started laying out the butterflies I decided to add the big daisies.
