    That's so pretty! and a shame that it's not available anymore. What about this one?

    or anything from these?

    looks like they have 11 yards left. I hope that's enough for the back of your quilt!

    Suggest a backing fabric...-image.jpgOk, I didn't order the butterflies, but found this one for 3.99 / yard! I think it will work fine. Now I have to decide on a quilting pattern. I am thinking about using a verigated cream colored thread in some sort of a swirl pattern.

    I like the swirls! (I must admit that in the small picture, I first thought it was Astroturf! New glasses may be in order. )
    Courtesy is not optional.

    funny! If you open the picture full size the fabric has swirls on it. I think it will work great with the green embroidered swirls I am putting inthe corners of the quilt.
