I agree with Terri. Beautiful blocks
|
I think Terri D. is right. Bring the blocks to size with sashing and you will have a very special quilt. froggyintexas

That butterfly is so unique! I agree with QuiltE's suggestion to add detail on the butterfly we ith your quilting.
I can't wait to see the finished quilt! And would love to see photos of the other quilts you are doing with rescued blocks! |

I would add some embroidery to the wings. If you use the wonky sashing it would be cute to embroider eyes and a button nose on it and French knots on the end of the antennae. I have seen many different butterflies but never this shape.

RedGarnet222, glad you posted the name of the moth my grand daughter & I found one in my kitchen sink! We were talking how strange & pretty the pink was.
|
I'd do the wing detail with the quilting, and not overdo it. Ditto on the french knots for eyes....
|
Okay here's my two cents. I would applique two small pieces in each wing. Then I would had some lines to the body of the butterfly. Some sashing and cornerstones would also bring it all together.
|
I think I would sash with pastels and the quilting like suggested will bring some beauty to the butterflies. I was thinking of Small pastel gingham checks for the sashing.
