Do bee fabrics "creep you out"? Or are you only afraid of real bees" (I know what my MIL would say - she HATES bees!)

How about other bug fabrics?

Should I even ask about .... snake fabrics?

I'm actually making a bug quilt right now and these bees would be a perfect addition to it.

Snakes might creep me out, but not everyone. I'm loving the bees! :)

I hate real bugs-anything with more than 4 legs is just creepy, but the fabrics don't bother me at all. Of course, most are very colorful and cute, that helps. I don't like snake fabric....I mean, they don't have legs at all. Ewwww.

I have a god daughter named Bea. And every quilt I have made for her has bee fabric in it somewhere.

I have some really cute bug fabric. If they look cartoony it's fine. If it were realistic looking, DD would freak out. :)

I have snakeskin print fabric that I've made clothing from.

That fabric is cute. I don't mind the bug fabrics at all. Don't mind real bees either. We just have an agreement to leave each other alone. Sometimes bees actually land on me but I don't freak out, then they leave with no problems.
