I have always loved bugs.
As a Florida girl I remember laying on my tummy in the grass playing with hundreds of fuzzy caterpillars and being in heaven. There was a sweet spring scent in the air that day and whenever I find myself in the presence of that smell I am right back on my belly, five years old again, hands covered in caterpillars.
The only science class I ever excelled in at university was entomology. It helped that my professor was awesome and let me do a project on the influence of insects on the art world.
Spiders have always proved to be the most fascinating to me. Their weaving skills alone are mind-blowing. The Jumping Spider, in my opinion, is hands down the cutest of all arachnids.
Here is my version of the fuzzy fellow in embroidered form.

I would be thrilled to see any other jumpers made with my pattern!
