It is beautiful whether butterflies or dragon. Not sure of how to quilt it unless you could find a small butterfly and flower template to do in the corners.

Beautiful, looks like butterflies to me. Your applique stitches are perfect. Wonderful job on this one.

I would have called them butterflies, but it's a very cute quilt no matter what they are!

You could do a small stipple around the appliques to make the background recede and the drgonflies and flowers pop. Or you could do a Mactavish around them.
Beautiful appliques and great colors :thumbup:

I really like the colors on the white. I want to try applique on my next quilt. Looks like fun.

Either way, it's beautiful! :thumbup:
