No twins visit was yesterday. I cuddled with Isa after her bath and I had Bram on my lap after he had his bottle. I had dinner at my DDIL's and Mick walked me to my car We had to stop about a thousand times because he was looking for ladybugs. Bending over, studying the bushes, looking and looking .........NO, no ladybugs. Next tiny green spot, same procedure In Dutch they're called 'lieveheersbeestjes'

I know ... though it does not have to be applique!!!!
Finish? who ever worries about that?

And besides, we've got to keep Mick in mind these days!

Looks like you could draft this one up, easy enough!

Better still ... here's one with the pattern waiting for Grandmamamama to download!

Wow QuiltE, you're fast! I love the craftsy one better too but the other one has more options. What about fun fabrics in the middle aquares and the ladybugs in the border? I think Mick will like those ladybugs marching around his quilt I'm going to download that pattern! Thanks

What about an assortment of all the things a lady bug would be around .... flowers, fruit, plants, dirt ... kind of like an I Spy, specific to the Lady Bugs ... and I do like your idea of them marching all around!

I'm delighted to see you back working on this Anael! We all take pauses now and again.
I smiled at little Mick on the look out for ladybugs. Aren't they a treat at this age?
Cute patterns, QE.
