Love the apron. A couple of the jars could be the pockets.

I think you should sign this one in permanent marker. I bet more people will be wanting one!

A friend of mine made me a food jar wallhanging and she said it was a bugger to make - I have wanted to make one for the school cafeteria to hang on their walls for decoration but after hearing her say it was a bugger I have been pushing the thought away...

Did you find it also to be not so fun to quilt? Yours came out beautifully! (okay, so did the one my friend made me)

Thanks for the kind words.
I made this in 2 afternoons after work. The jars are paper pieced, I will admit that I did not "quilt" it at all, this is a reversible apron and the back was a solid piece of "food" fabric. When I make my wall hanging I will be adding "books" to the shelves to make it more realistic, they are paper pieced as well.

It is NOT a bugger to make. My nine-yr-old made one (foundation piecing). Started it at Martha Pullen Sewing School, but finished it here with me watching.
