Great idea on the jar. I'm going to do that the very next time I'm jonesing. This time a wrong turn saved me and I went home rather than back track to the store. Whatever works in a crisis right? I just finished fmq'ing a table runner so now I'm on to making a new binding for an old blanket. I had bought one last year but it had worn out already. And a new one was 8 bucks at JoAnn's so my friend suggested that I make one from my quilting fabric. So I'm doing 8 inch strips on a gorgeous striped floral pattern for the binding. It's a nice little project while I'm catching my breath between doing two hand work quilts. One is a Victorian Crazy Quilt and one is a Lighted Christmas Wreath wall hanging. So 1 1/3 yards used on the blanket, 2/3 yard used on the Wall Hanging backing. It's a start. And at least I'm not still moving in the wrong direction.
