I had 6 cordinating fat quarters so I cut:
9 6" squares of each fabric, I didn't quite use all of them and I didn't have enough of the blue for a full square so I made a template from a manilla folder for butterfly wings with the remaining fabric.
6 squares x 6 squares = 36 total squares
The white/muslin:
2 1/2" x 6" rectangles = 30
2 1/2" x width of row plus an inch = 5
Looking back I would have made one big square where the butterfly was appliqued instead of making the square... It should have been a 10" x 6" rectangle.
I used 1/4 of a yard of yellow and made 4 WOF strips for the border
and a little less than 1/2 yard of orange for the binding, I double my binding so my cuts were 3."
Let me know if you like it!
Beautiful quilt! I love the fabrics! I'm pinning this!
