Peaches Anyone?

[lawork1211]

I did this quilt for my cousin's husband. He's are real sweetheart and we all love him to death. They live a couple of states away so we don't see them often. The first time he visited, we found out he has an addiction to peaches. He eats a large can every evening for a snack. Shipping is expensive, so I though I would send him a whole shelf full so that he could never say he was out of peaches. The shelves full of peach jars quilt ended up being 70"x85. Hope you like the quilt!Peaches.jpg
I didn't forget my cousin, she got this americana one.Dogs 009.jpg

These are great. Did you applique all those jars or is it the fabric? The quilting is great. I like the Americana quilt to. Love "old timey" look of the beige fabric. Great job.

Oh my goodness the peach one is SOOOOOO cute!! Makes me want to jump on one for my Granny with all of her canning. Was it a pattern or your own creation?

Re: Peaches Anyone?

The jars are all piece (10 per row). I made the pattern up as I went. I did applique one jar on the back as my label. I really like how it turned out!

I found fabric with peaches piled all over it. There is a whole line of veggie and fruit fabrics.

Welcome to the forum and thank you for sharing your darling quilts right off the bat. It took me weeks and weeks to post. The peach quilt is wonderful and the flag quilt is great. You did a great job on both quilts! Visit often...we need to get to know you. Barb
