I love ladybugs, when I was younger still in the pram, My mam use to take me a walk round the river, it is a good 2 hour walk and nice to stop for picnics, we all had the coach built silvercross prams,
i was in the pram and she had stopped to see to my sister and turned round and she tells me that that the pram was thick with ladybugs, i had them EVERYWHERE, was chewing them and drowning them in drool, even when she got home to her mams, I have them inside my nappy. they are rare bugs here now, maybe my fault but they are beautiful

I have to reframe this one. It had an accident and got pretty banged up.
Ladybugs are really common around here. When we first moved into this house, it had been standing empty for over a year. I vacuumed up so many in the window sills that had come in to hibernate and not been able to get back out.
I loved the story but, ewwww in the nappy....That had to tickle. Makes me itch thinking about it.

Yes, this one is from that magazine. I had started it and the dog I had at the time chewed up the magazine. I found this and the companion piece in one of the locan department stores. I am not sure I hae the pattern anymore.

Where did you get that pattern? I dont think that I have ever seen it before and I think it might look nice in my bathrrom!

julie ramey said...

I bought it at Ewe Count in Cheyenne. (I think). They come up on ebay regularly. In fact, there is one up there that Penny (the owner of Ewe Count) is selling.
