Let's go swimmin'!

The next step is to actually go cut out 30 8.5" squares of a fabric that likes butterflies, and in particular, bright yellow or chromium yellow (to the green bright) of the common sulphurwing. The butterfly shown above is the orange-barred sulphur, so he is to the Cadmium yellow in overall appearance, which may be why someone would create a website called "20 most beautiful butterflies in the world" and include the lowly sulphur wing and in particular, that cadmium yellow color that shouts "I'm here!"
So, It's off to see the stash wizard and try to come up with a pleasing remedy to the next issue: picking fabrics for the quilt. I have so many, I'm going to limit it to what I have on hand. This was gonna be "turquoise" month, and I even bought the fabrics. But along flits a sulphurwing, and what can I do but have my eyes follow him? Be back hopefully within an hour with an 8" mockup of this revised Yellow Butterfly idea.
Edit: Oh, we just turned a page, so I'm adding the pics to be on the same page:
