Sunflower Mason Jar - A Mason Jar Freebie- Maybe?

Good afternoon , ya'll. Yep 2 posts in a day, I would have done it all in one post, but it would have been waaaaay too loooooong. 🙄

If you missed this morning's post, click here to see my vintage Dresden Plate quilt and my tiered tray. 

 So let me start off by Boo Hooing 😢😭  and telling you  that I have been feeling a bit blue lately. Why you ask? Well , here we go again! Tech Issues! 

 Google Docs is giving me a fit, and I am not able to upload my freebie charts as jpgs. Uggggh! 😠😩😭 What to do?!?! 

First off, I am not very techy, and I have to scan my charts and upload them from the USB. When I try to upload them, I get the message "this file type is not supported". All was ok until a week ago. I think Google has updated, and I have am just too tech dumb to figure what is going on. To say the least  I am almost in tears. Do you have any suggestions or ideas? 

 I have been stitching up a storm though. 

In fact, I have been working feverishly  to squeeze in my Sunflower Jar for Sunflower September stitching. 

Eeh! Let's do the wave!!!  I completed it.  Just a jar filled with sunshine. It certainly makes me smile. 

This little jar stitched up quickly and there are only 7 floss colors in it. DMC 937, 898, 3345, 3347, 782, 3371 and 413. 

So what I am going to try to do, is post the image of the chart  on my blog . I do not know if you will be able to print it or not. This is an experiment until I can find a solution if there is one. Let me know how it comes out on your end if you do try to print it. 

Lookie at my little bears gifted to me from, sweet Joan. Aren't they the cutest? Thank you , Joan. Oh how I love these guys. 

If you are interested in stitching the Sunflower Jar, please check out the images below. 

Many of you know , but I always like to leave this little disclaimer.  

I stitch my little designs for fun and to decorate my home. I feel very blessed by this community and love sharing my little charts, but I am not a professional designer. And I do not have professional software. Thank you for understanding that I  have to put each page on separate links because of the devices I use. I apologize for that.  These are images of the chart  or JPG s and not downloads.   I am always grateful for your kind encouragement , your visits, and for stitching my little designs.

If you are having trouble with  the above images and they  can not be saved and  printed, try right clicking these images .  Lol I am trying to figure this out.  Thanks again for understanding. 

Something about Fall always makes me want to bake. I haven't tried these muffins yet, but they do sound so yummy.

 Not sure why blogger has a large gap between the text.
