    Wow Jaba - that was fast! And lovely too
    I think my round will need to be on a beige base - maybe with colorful butterflies as the corner stones.
    What do you thing Lana?

    I agree Paula. Light tan and butterflies always welcome. My plans are to bind it in a dark to finish off the stained glass look.

    Yeah - would you prefer 8 butterflies or just the 4 in the corners?

    I was thinking of making some in the same style as these to keep with the stained glass effect:

    one Jan Love your round! thank you for fixing mine. (she fixed it for me because I couldn't send it on.. and trust me its amish enough with my work without needing to be upside down too)

    Sounds like you would like a darker round maybe with colorful butterflies lana.. your ending dark to keep with the stained glass so maybe dark with bright orange or that blue butterfly color? I love that block dragonfly wow that is a good one.. paper pieced?? never have seen that one.

    no paper pieced for me (yuck!) It is a 12" block by Pam Bono - a favorite designer of mine. I will have to adapt it for size but if she likes it I can do it - maybe even some 1/2 butterflies too.

    I really love the butterflies. they stay with the effect that all of the ladies have added. I know whatever you do will be great. Go for it.
