My buttery is filled to the brim with canned goodness - stitched ones that is! 😀
Good afternoon, y'all. It is no secret that I love "canning season". Come summer time the canners are at full steam.
Over the last few years , I have been canning the holidays in the form of stitched holiday creations.
My newest jar in the Mason Jar series is The Thanksgiving Jar.
Ole' Tom Turkey is ready for the Thanksgiving holiday along with a home grown pumpkin.
