I had my monthly quilting circle meeting today and it was “sew” much fun! I’ll tell you more about it in the next post, but for now I wanted to show you the adorable fabrics we exchanged.

Each person had to bring in three bug fabrics or fruits and veggies. These are my mine.

Then we got a variety of fabric pieces in return, one set for each participant. Here are the ones I received: Bugs and butterflies strips that I can use to make bug jar blocks.

And another group of fruits and vegetables that would be perfect for a kitchen jar quilt!

Bobbie, our guild president gave us each a pattern to make these cute bottle jar blocks. You start with a strip of fabric 5 1/2 inches wide by 9 inches long. Add small “snowball” corners to each side of the fabric and a 1 1/2 inch strip of brown at the top for the lids. Cute, huh?
