I agree, pix would help with thinking of a name ... but what is wrong with 'funky bugs'?

Ditto on the need a pic for ideas!
More likely to have something that "suits" the quilt if we do.

What comes to mind is ...
Buggy for Bugs!
Just Bugs
Bugged

A friend made a "cabinet" as a border for hers. I would suggest a dark border to enclose those bugs, visually. If you do applique, a couple of bugs on the border might be nice.

Being that you're facing the bug control issue, straight up, then ..... how about adding a big boot to smoosh those bugs out???? :)

Do you want some more bug fabric? I just finished bugs in a jar and have some small pieces I will share with you. Mine is just bugs in jars. Do you want to name yours "Don't bug me?" Why is it important that it has a name? Bugs are just bugs!
