I like this option much better.

Your focus fabric is beautiful. I vote for #1. It seems to frame the butterflies.

Of the 4 I like #1, the yellows in the others is too bright for me but you did say they weren't exact representations. I love the focus fabric and my thought would be to use more of the blues...but go with your preferences.

Love the butterfly fabric, could you use a blue cross with the red?

I agree I love love love the butterfly focus fabric but I feel like it keeps getting overwhelmed by your other fabrics. It could be the brightness of them or the size of the strips, or the size of the focus block I'm not sure what it is but to me you loose the beauty of your butterflys with all of these.

I like #2 first, then #1. I think the focal fabric will show up more in life than in the pics. You knew you were going to get 100 different opinions lol! It will be so fun and beautiful whatever you do. Can't wait to see the finished product.
