Kathy, I just googled.."butterfly embroidery designs"..and then clicked on "images of butterfly embroidery designs" and scrolled down till I found the ones I liked then copied them to WordPad [or whichever program you might have on your computer] and made them the size I wanted, printed them and then just traced them lightly to the fabric with carbon paper.
They are actually machine embroidery designs but work out really well for hand embroidery.
In the hummingbird block I just traced the flowers first without the butterfly and put in the hummingbird. The hummingbirds I found the same way..
