I finished it up and just LOVE it! I had to hunt for the wood grain to make the shelves. I found it in Sisters.

Thanks to Moosegirl, Star, BeachLady, Quiltingnonie, Norbanaquilts, Missgigglewings, Tink121272, Goldendog55, Bibliostone, Sulabug, SewJoyce, and Amma. Hope I got everyone--If I missed you let me know so I can make sure you get on the label. THANK YOU ladies for the wonderful Jars!

I added a fish bowl, some books and a tea pot to fill in. This one is MINE. I used flannel on the back and plan on snuggling in for the winter!

One that I get to keep!

Very pretty! I really like this one. I think it's the variety of jar sizes that does it for me.

I love this quilt. I'm hoping to be inspired by yours to start mine. I have all the fabric, just need the gumption. Thank you for sharing.

It is a fun swap! Just one block a month and you pick your theme.
It is still going on and anyone can join at anytime.

What a fun quilt! I made a "button" jar, but you've gone all out here, love it.

Snorky Lvs2Quilt 01-24-2011 09:27 PM

I really like the variations in the jars. You did a great job on this. I have been collecting veggie fabrics for a while with making a jar quilt in mind. Maybe I will vary it with some candy fabric too. Great job!

Conartist1945 01-25-2011 02:27 AM

That is just too nice..looks authenic like a wooden cupboard. Guess that was the intent. Your own design or a pattern? I am into Roosters and Hen and Chicks. Have a good dya..
Good Job, thanks for sharing.Linda

Tussymussy 01-25-2011 04:49 AM

That is one cute wall hanging. Love it.

mcbride4362 01-25-2011 05:02 AM

Awesome! This made me smile just to look at it! Good job. Did you have a pattern? Where did you get it from? Glad you are keeping this one for yourself.

abonda 01-25-2011 05:05 AM

For the block exchange I just requested jars with black background. Anything they chose to put in the jar....there are seashells, marbles, buttons, fruits, veggies, nuts/bolts, beans, garlic, eggs, thread, more buttons. One has the birds. It was really fun to see what the ladies came up with.

There was another lady wanting jars with flowers. I wonder if she put them together.....???
