The other day I had asked for the pattern for a adorable Jar Shelf wall hanging...here is yet another set of instructions that I thought be helpful.

Thank you for that Dee! Now I know what to do with my fabric that has kids in it...actually a pipe dream of what I want to do with my own sometimes!

Tata-

ROFLOL! Canned kids! Do you hot pack or cold pack them? You reminded me of something my beloved Kate once said. She used to foster teenage girls. A neighbor asked her once for some advice on raising her own teenagers. Kate, who was an avid gardner replied that the best was to raise teenagers was to plant them early, in their tweens. Keep them well watered and fertilized so they will grow. Mulch in winter to keep them warm. Harvest them on their twentieth birthday!

BTW, I have beau coup Asian fabric. Am looking for a ginger jar pattern. Can anyone help?

Meg, here's a pattern for sale

This one is in the October 2007 issue of Quilters World magazine
http://www.pinetreecountryquilts.com/quiltkits.htm

This is NOT a list for ginger jars but free stained glass patterns - these can easily be adapted for Celtic type quilts using 1/4" fusible or not bias binding.

OK I need to run some errands for DH, will check back later. In the meantime, Meg, do any of your fabrics have ginger jars on them? You could copy one, and make a pieced or applique pattern from that.

Later, gator!

Meg, does this help any?
