A great gift or favor for your quilting parties or Red
Hat get-togethers!
"Dear
Egress Etch," a new client wrote, "I have a friend who is an avid
quilter and also a member of a Red Hat group. I have an idea for a Friendship
Quilt jar using recycled square jars and a crocheted jar topper, but I'm not
sure exactly how to go about it."
We suggested
that our client measure the etchable surface on the jars, then choose four of
our simple graphics, and we'd enclose them in a border to resemble quilt
blocks.
Our client
chose a heart, a clover, a tulip, and a butterfly. When she had finished her
project, she sent the above photo and the note she had included with each
jar:
"Friendship Quilt Jar"
Subtle blessings are often
obscured by the obvious - as the etching on this jar can be obscured by the
candy inside of it. But, as you enjoy the obvious treats, the more subtle
wishes etched in the glass itself become more and more clear. I wish you:
Love
Luck
Beauty in everyday life
Dreams that soar on wings of Butterflies

Note from
Egress Etch: any type of glassware with square or rectangular sides, in any
size, will work for this type of project. Just measure the etchable surface of
the sides and contact us about the graphics you would like -- we will create
the stencils!
The
crocheted "Friendship Quilt Jar Topper" pattern is available for
purchase from our friends at
Treasured Heirlooms Crochet!
