WOW I just love it. Nice work. Glad I could help. Are those spider webs on the quilt top? If so too cool.

I plan to do one for my sewing room. Each jar will have some sewing related in it!

Those are absolutely adorable!! Cannot wait to see pictures from the barn, too. You have inspired me to make a bug jar quilt-I I collected all the fabric-just need the fire lit.

Fantastic!! Reminds me of my days at the fair when I was in 4-H. What a great group we have here to help you get all those different fabrics.

I love the wall hangings....The collector in me thinks it is such a great idea to find these special fabrics for a smiliar quilt. (Although, no offense here, I don't think it will be bugs.) Thanks for sharing!

Hi ReneeBobbi:
No, actually the little spiderwebs are hand tatted pieces that are about 100 years old. I thought they might look kinda nice as a doily on the shelf but it didn't turn out quite like I thought it would. I thought I should put the doily on hanging over the shelp part of the quilt but several of my quilty friends thought the tatting should be as visible as possible so putting it on the black background is the way I chose to go. I think I'll just tell people is is a cobweb...after all, there are cobs in the canning pantry now and then. Thanks for the great idea.
