    how cute! I never seen a jar of dogs before, how do you preserve them? LOL, I tried to get my mom to make one but she doesn't like paper piecing and said it was too hard trying to use templates.

    Very cute Dawn! I made one without paper piecing and I didn't think it was hard at all... I didn't use templates either, just rectangles and squares sewn across the diagonal.

    I just wish now I would have known how to free motion, I could only quilt in the ditch at that time (still aint very good at free motion)...so just went around each jar and lid, etc.

    Fun to make and yours is unique!

    I'm with Kathy. Very cute quilt, but not sure about the canned dogs. :)
    You did a good job on it.
