As some of y’all know, I began working at the LQS, Quilt In Joy, earlier this year.

It’s a great quilt store specializing in Batiks and Brights. They carry a lot of novelty prints as well as a good color wall.

I asked Kathi, the store owner, if I could feature some of our new lines on the blog, and she thought that was a great idea!

The line I’m working with this week for the store sample is Beetle Boy. Cute little “buggas” all over it….that’s what my son used to call them when he was “bitty”.

This pattern is called Beetle Boy and is available here as a freebie from Clothworks. The store also has several kits for these if anyone is interested. I made this in 1 day!

Love those giant appliqued bugs! My son would have loved this quilt when he was little. He had a giant tub of bugs and snakes. He used to arrange them in rows and play with them.

We even had a bugga birthday party!
