Bring a little garden magic to your quilting with Ladybird Garden! 🌸🐞

This cheerful quilt features colourful scrappy Dresden flowers, playful appliquéd ladybirds and simple leaves, all set against a background that lets the flowers shine. With two size options and plenty of opportunities to play with your favourite fabrics, it's a lovely project for adding a little personality to your quilt collection.

Inspired by the many ladybirds visiting my own garden, I hope you'll have as much fun making Ladybird Garden as I did designing it!

Ladybird Garden is a wonderful opportunity to use your favourite fabrics, raid your scrap basket and experiment with colour. The suggested layouts are there to guide you, but you can always add extra flowers, scatter in more ladybirds or arrange the leaves your own way.
