Bug Jars



This quilt was designed for my friend's baby nephew. She asked me to help her put something together that would be different and cute for a baby. She picked the fabric and I modified my Bottled Roosters pattern to make the jar tall like a mason jar.

Bottled Roosters



My friend Nicole inspired this quilt design. I was shopping at a fabric store and saw a pattern on how to make baby jar quilts. It consisted of small squares and triangles cut out of fruit and vegetable print fabric. When placed together it looked like small jars of baby food on a shelf. It was really cute, but I didn't want to buy the pattern. I went home and drew out a similar pattern and then brought it up to scale. At the time my friend had purchased her first home and had decorated with some cool funky rooster lamps. I put the two together, and came up with Bottled Roosters.
