I think it is beautiful. Also, it is your house, it matches the border, why not put it there? I have seen several mag. that have put quilts all over houses, why not there? You could make a shower curtain (have a separate plastic liner for inside) and use the same butterflies to put on it and continue the theme for the room. I found a lovely print of tropical fish, and the ocean floor, and then proceeded to sew up a shower curtain to give privacy to the stall. Then I used the pictures of the fish and coral reef, and painted them on the walls to match. I have an art degree, I love to do murals.
I love butterflies, and have been looking for a good image, hope you don't mind if I look and copy yours to use? Thanks.

Just stunning! I have a friend in Rapid City, SD who loves butterflys as much as I do, I need to write to her, or call her and tell her to get on this forum. When I was a child growing up in Sacramento, my parents would take my brother, and myself,to Monterey/Carmel. We would stay in an inn near 17 Mile Drive and watch the butterfies. Didn't do it every year, both remember the many years that we did.

Thanks for sharing this lovely piece.
