    Very cool looking quilt, Feathers! Can I steal the food fabric idea? :twisted: I think that would be awesome!

    Feathers, My mom just was to a quilt shop close out sale, (I missed it) bought some fabric with cucumbers, squash, corn, type fabrics also one with pumpkins, apples, peppers, type stuff on it they were selling all fabric for $1.00 a yard. Thes sale will also be next thursday and she said they had some left. If you are intersted I would need to know how much of (if any) you would be intersted in. I thought of you as soon as she showed it to me!! Let me know!!

    Roben...no need to steal the idea. It's not my original thought, I found it on the net and the pattern on the net is free. Go for it and make sure if you make it that you post pictures.

    Lorretta, She is making a jar quilt now with fruit. But she is using things you would not think would go in a jar, like bananas, and all all types of things. So you could do the same thing. Thread, scissors, needles, frabric, and more. If I think of more I will let you know. I think that would be a cute one. Do it. Make sure we get a picture. :D

    Well I guess we will have to put the word out and start looking. If you really want to do one do like Sandy did and put in classified for fabric. I sent her what I had for fruit. I will look but I don't think I have any sewing fabric. But others may. You would be suprised what might come up. I think it would be and awesome quilt. :D

    Terrible english and spelling. :( I meant post in classified what you are looking for and will pay. You won't need a lot for each jar. I would send you for free if I had any. I will still look and if I see any when I am out I will pick up, if you want. I hope the spelling is better this time. :D

    I just had to edit again. I think my brain is thinking backwards today. :shock:

    I saw a jar sewing quilt on line somewhere. (I think is was a jar, I could be wrong). If I remember I will let you know. Hey you could always make it different and do a couple of jars and then a machine or something. Just thinking off the top of my head. LOL, and that is not working very well this AM. :roll:
