Yes, I saw some cute ones too. I clicked on "images" and searched "cartoon bees" & "bee coloring pages."
I searched here on the board also and found 'mythreesons' post of a bumblebee quilt:

Go to google and select images...them type in what you are looking for. To narrow it down a bit on the left side select Clip Art. You will come up with more images than you can every sew. =) It has become my favorite way to search.

Hi Gramtam,
I have a piece of fabric that has bees that look just like the ones that Jo M posted. The bees are on a light blue background. It's maybe 3/4 yard. You might be able to use it in the borders and do a large applique of a bee in the center of the quilt.
I'd post a picture but I'm not sure how as I've never done it before. I could possibly shut down the whole system. :o)
Let me know and I'll try and post it. I have it scanned and stored, so ready to give it a try if you are interested.

Hi...do you have an embroidery machine or know anyone with one? You can get some superb little characters embroidered. I live in the UK and would be happy to embroider you some if you are not in a rush...they are from the Bunnycup collection....Bumblebee at bottom....you could have them in different colours and put boorders round them...also one design has the bumblebee looking straight forward
