This has been a long time in the works. Finished it this afternoon. Backing is fleece that looks like cordoary, no batting. It is plenty heavy enough. Size is approx. 66 X 95. Quilted some of the jars with glow in the dark thread, but was disappointed that it really didn't glow much. This is for my 4 yr. old great-nephew.
Thanks for looking

Pat

What a perfect quilt for a little boy! If he hasn't yet, he will one day keep a bug in a jar for real. I'm sure he'll love it. Great job!

How adorable! The cat looking in the fish bowl and the lizard is just too too cute!!! Your nephew is going to love his quilt. :thumbup:

This is one of the cutest jar quilts I have seen. I love the cat, the lizard escaping and the one butterfly that found it's freedom as well. It looks just like a book shelf in a little boys room! Your nephew is sure to adore it.

Edited to add, I think the glow in the dark really glows when you hold it under a black light.
