It was a lot of fun though and made up rather easily and quickly..... FInished it's about 22 in. x 40 in.....

Lockeb: I really like your wall hangings. How cute they are. I like the plaid shelf doily you put on the shelf too, very creative. I made several hangings of this type to put in the Open Class Food barn at our county fair. They really turned out cute and sure did liven up drab walls of the barn where the displays and exhibits were. Thanks for sharing your beautiful work with us.

Thank you, Lockeb. They were fun to make. I think I made 4 large wallhangins for the walls of the fair barn. One I made has a jar with banana fabric in the jar. Canned bananas? It was a great conversation starter at the fair. I also made small hangings with candy fabrics such as jelly beans, starlight mint fabrics and one with chocolate candy fabrics.

Besides the fruit and veggy jars, I also made a quilt to donate that was made with all BUG fabrics..it was very cute and just perfect for a little boy or girl!

What a cute project. I think I might be looking for some fabric to do some jars. Although now that I'm thinking about it, wouldn't it be cute to photograph some of your own stuff and do fabric transfer and use that for the jar contents.
