Mason Jar Monday

Good Monday morning, ya'll. 

Come on in ! It is warm and toasty inside though there is a plethora of snowmen everywhere. 

My tiered tray by the corner kitchen sink is jam packed with snowmen salt and pepper shakers, snowmen and Smores mugs. 

 You smell that ? The pot is a brewing!

I'm sorry ; it's not anything yummy like cheddar potato soup or white bean chili. You wanna see ? 

Yep! It's fabric brewing. I bet you guessed that. Cookin' up a batch of 14 count aida in a coffee/tea bath. After seeing dear Cheryl's fabric on Instagram , I had to put a batch in the pot.Cheryl had some yummy looking fabrics, and she said she added a dash of vanilla. So I am trying that as well.  Click here to  visit a post where I talk more about my tea/coffee dyeing. 

 I've been taking down my Christmas, but if it is pieces that I can justify leaving out longer I'm keeping those winter pieces out ,  like the Glad Tidings quilt a design by Pam Buda and my barn cookie jars on top of my hoosier.

 

Today is Mason Jar Monday.

 I am working on my mason jar quilt. 

I haven't decided what I am going to name it yet.  I finished the embroidery work on my Snowman Jar. 

This past week I worked on my Birdie Jar.  

Aren't they cute together? Just using shirtings and scraps for this one. I'm not purchasing a bit of fabric.  

 Today I will  start pulling fabric for block 3. I have been doodling . So I have an idea.

 I'm still  on the fence about  this guy.
