Love the butterfly fabric and really like #1 and #4. This would really be hard to choose.

Butterfly material is wonderful, how big are the blocks as planned? I like # 1 the best.

What a fantastic fabric. However, since you asked, I think the yellow is too much, perhaps a very, very pale yellow or soft cream.

That's one of those fabrics that are too gorgeous to cut! That said, I would vote on the first one.

With the red square - like this one!

Try putting red in the little square where the crosses intersect. That would break up the yellow and
would tie in the beautiful focus fabric. I think that one change would do it.

What a great idea Marcia - thanks!!!

I like the yellow and dark blue, I think that they have great contrast and the butterfly fabric can stand up to the contrast. Gorgeous butterfly fabric!

Of the 4, I would go with #1. But have you considered the red with the blue cross? That's what I would do.

Racerh, aren't we a great group of designers?

You took several suggestions and came up with a wonderful layout! The blue/yellow/red combo looks perfect. Good luck!!

Oh, I didn't read far enough, sorry. Yes the blue fabric is wonderful, but I still think the yellow overwhelms. I would go with the red or orange for the cross, or that nice cream color in the print.
