When I spotted Myra's sweet, adorable ladybug finish I knew I HAD to stitch her myself. She is just so cute and sassy! I actually stitched and finished her as a magnetic needle minder in one evening. This counts as A BIG DEAL because she has fifteen different colors AND she is stitched over-one. And I rarely stitch over-one. The fabric pictured was used on the back. Teeny-tiny, she was the perfect size for the needle minder. I love her!
Design ~ In Your Easter BonnetDesigner ~ Brooke's Books

What was I doing stitching yet another new project when I should be working on Snapper year? I'm happy to say, there has been splendid progress on April's block, so there! Seriously, it rained ALL weekend so was perfect for stitching.
Thank you for visiting my blog today!

Your sassy little ladybug looks great! I can't imagine stitching her over one, over two was fiddly enough with all the color changes. I have yet to finish/finish mine. I enjoy seeing your snapper year blocks develop.
You are an evil enabler! LOL! Now I have to hunt down that pattern and do one. That is so adorable.
That is one gorgeous little ladybug and over one to boot.
Lovely ladybug. And the fabric is very cute.

That ladybug is such an adorable little finish, no wonder you couldn't resist it.
Aprils snapper is looking good!
Your ladybug is really cute. We call them ladybirds in England. Don't really know why because they are more of a bug than a bird!
Happy stitching.
