Did you stitch around the butterflies? That is something I would do. Very pretty otherwise.

What does you batting say? To me, the butterfly section looks fairly large for being unquilted. Your selection of hankies is perfect for the job.

I like them. I like the idea people have suggested of going around the butterflies once. That would look nice.

I would quilt around the butterflies once or twice. I think the curves would add interest to all the straight lines. Looks beautiful!!

I think crosshatching will be over-kill leave it as is, it's wonderful now
