I like the Antique Tile block also. I think I'll use that one and keep looking for another.
As for my butterfly blocks I'm going to use the flutterflies http://quickquilts.com/golden/qg26_patt ... 6_pattern/.
I'm contemplating doing the wedge buttefly too. It looks a little daunting though.

Jan - that wedge butterfly is different and absolutely beautiful.
Vicky - that blue and yellow looks really good together.

How hard do you think that wedge butterfly will be?
I started my other butterflies last night. They are applique'd and are going to be fairly easy.

As I see it that wedge butterfly is a very large pattern. How are you going to decrease it to make it 12 1/2 square? It sure is beautiful!

Vicky - she could just cut the pieces down by 50%. I do it all the time, either enlarge or reduce.

Oh, shoot....that would be pretty big! lol I'll try making it 1/2 the size--if it works, great, but if not. I'll think of something else.

I've been working on my butterflies today. I'm almost through cutting all the pieces for all 3 remaining sets! YEA! I think cutting is the part I like the least. I can't wait to start sewing to really see how they're going to look!! Hopefully, I'll get to work on them some this weekend and post pictures soon.
