Really cute bug jar quilt. Love all the "escaped" critters. He should really get a kick out of this quilt.

He will love it!!! It's adorable and I have a little grand I hope to make one for. Maybe by next Christmas I will find enough bug fabrics to get it done.

It is difficult to see but my LAQ did a wonderful job, putting dragon flies on the border for that extra touch.
Thanks for looking.

Oh, how cute. It reminds me of collecting lightening bugs in a jar as a child. The frog is great. Dragonflies are supurb. Wonderful quilt. Father and son will love it.
