[@ibrockinrobin67]

Oh how I wish we could preserve and protect our childrens' sweet tender, innocent hearts in a darling canning jar. You bring such joy of the way things used to be. Thank you for sharing you talents with us.

[@suziclary5573]

Love this! Canning jar!!

[@Happybidr]

That really captures the same thoughts that I am having. How lovely that would be.

[@dianemadison5955]

These canning jars bring back memories of my Dad and his large garden. He would can all kinds of vegetables, make homemade pickles, and homemade jelly. He canned so many green beans that my Mom had enough for a couple of years after he passed away. Watching your videos always brings back happy memories from my childhood and simpler times. Love everything you do! Thanks for all your hard work and sharing your talents. 😘

[@juliekaufman8635]

The canning jar is adorable!! I love your calm voice when I’m trying to learn. You’re a great teacher!!

[@janetschwarz2922]

Lori - I love that you actually SEW with us : ) instead of just talking and pointing. SO delightful, relaxing, and informative! - thank you.

[@rebeccaforbes8629]

I love the "home-iness" of the canning Jar pattern. And I am so impressed that you make time to can every year! I wish I were as goal oriented as you are. You are an inspiration to set goals - and accomplish them. :)

[@debicypert3285]

Oh my! Love the canning jar appliqué. I am addicted to these cute shapes - I’ve always been drawn to reproduction fabric and colors but have jumped on the Lori Holt Bandwagon.

[@debbiekalwanaski6074]

Your canning jar pattern is so sweet, and I absolutely love all your little do dads. Thank you for sharing your talent.

[@lindajohns9060]

I love all of your notions and fabric, and your video tutorials, especially this one! Canning jars remind me of my Grandmother making her delicious spaghetti sauce! She cooked it for HOURS, and her house smelled so Good! She would then can the sauce, placing it in quart canning jars. What a treat to receive one of these jars of sauce, but even better was eating a plate of spaghetti with her homemade sauce ladled over that spaghetti! Yum yum…thank you for allowing me to relive those special memories with my Grandma….all due to a canning jar!!

[@stamperammagash6945]

I love everything you do, they make me remember happy times with my mom and grandparents. We used all the canning jars we could get our hands on in the fall, canning fruits, vegetables and jams. My grandma used to cut fabric from worn out clothing to cover the jar lids and place in a basket with fresh picked fruit and produce. We used to take it to church on Sundays and give them to families that were in need. Made me feel so good. Your generosity and talent are amazing. Thank you for the opportunity to enter into the giveaway. '

[@ninaplastinina4390]

Agree, absolutely) those happy days with my grandma❤️

[@marilynklingensmith5901]

Hi Lori, thanks so much for all your wonderful videos and tutorials!! The fact that you share your awesome talents with us is a reflection of the type of person that you are in this world…A sharing, giving and generous soul indeed! I especially loved your canning jar video today. It reminded me of my childhood helping and watching my sweet Mom and sweet Grandma do all their canning at summer end as all the produce was ripe, ready for picking and preserved for use during the winter. They were great times with happy memories for sure. Thanks again for sharing your love of sewing! Keep the happiness coming!

[@jenniferdatan302]

This brings back fond memories of the canning days at my granparent’s house when I was growing up. Lots and lots of boiling canning jars and the smells of the various fruits and vegetables; berry jams, brandies cherries🌽

[@bonnieeisenhower1612]

I just love those "Canning Jars". I have done so much canning, from fresh caught Tuna to home grown veggies, fruits, jams, and 100 yr old chocolate syrup recipe. I am like you I use the jars for everything. You are an inspiration! Thank you so much for your tutorials. I have learned so much from you and Kimberly Jolly. I am 70+ and sewing since I was a young teenager. I am proof you are never too old to learn new methods and try new things.

[@marlenehite185]

I love the canning jar. It takes me back to when I was a kid. My mom and dad canned tomatoes every year. Whew, sure made our house hot while they were canning. :)

[@kristinadewitt2539]

Same for me! They would do it in September and it would be so hot when I came in from school that all the mirrors in the house would be fogged over and dripping! Thanks for reminding me of that !❤️❤️❤️

[@PhiSig357]

I love to watch your channel early in the morning when no one else is up. I really enjoyed this one today. Takes me back to my great grandma's house and how she would have canning jars lined up on the counter and kitchen table when she was canning. I miss those times!!

[@jodiegrace2849]

I love the canning jar block someone said they wished they could can their kids hearts. This reminded me of the pickled people we used to make in the 80s out of old stockings then put their faces in a jar. Did anyone else do this craft from Jodie Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺 in our sixth lockdown. Thank you Lori for getting us through this and I feel blessed to have a hobby. Just need to keep away from the iPad to do some real sewing.

[@marybrookman9982]

Everything you do brings back memories of my mom. She canned a lot of vegetables when I was young then only tomatoes when I was a teen. There were always lots of "canning jars" in our basement, full and empty. I only learned how to can tomatoes four years ago from my older sister. I mainly learned sewing and crafting from my mom. Both my sisters learned cooking. I love all you do and I love your fabrics. I wish I had the time to do it all!

[@audiclinton4385]

Hello Lori, I am new to quilting. I have fell in love with your line. The vintage style is my favorite. I have also found Kimberly along with her Fat Quarter Shop. You both carry so many easy to use tools. I love the canning jar it reminds me of my lovely Grandma. You and Kimberly are patient and kind teachers. You're books are outstanding so much information eye for details. I have crocheted since I was 16. I donate to our local NICU since '07 in memory of my granddaughter '05 & my son '07. They both left this world way to early, Donating helps my heart heal. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. I am learning so much from you & Kimberly. Thanks again 💟💟💟💟

[@loriboyer6404]

Your sew simple shapes are a treasure trove of fun! The possibilities are endless! I just finished making your acorn table topper and added my own unique take by adding your apples and squirrels! My husband loves canning jars! I think they remind him of the times he spent with his grandparents on their farm. When grandma got out the jars it was the promise of tasty treats - jams, jellies and relishes!

[@deloresoverstreet7635]

The canning jar this week was so appropriate for this time of year. So many people reaping their harvest. My daughter learned to can from her Grandfather and she loves that she is able to carry on his tradition of canning each Summer.

[@yiayia1071]

Why do canning jars stirs so many homemade memories...? The harvest and canning brings me so much comfort. Now, I rejoice in seeing daughters and daughter in laws continue this humble work. Lori, thank you for your great videos and for creating the most amazing and fu quilting products.

[@kathymeier3586]

The Canning Jar block brings back so many memories! Love it!

[@conniesimonich2327]

I loved watching my grandma use her canning jars to put up food from her garden. She had the best garden in our town.

[@bobh4060]

Your tutorials are so through Lori. It is a joy to watch you create. I love your bright and beautiful fabrics too. I grew up helping can all our fruits and vegetables. I had to prep the canning jars for use by washing them in hot, sudsy water because my hand would slip right in to get to bottoms of them. My mom canned 100 quarts of green beans and 100 quarts of tomatoes plus other stuff so it was no small operation. We had a huge garden but with seven children to feed it was a labor of love for us all, which at the time I didn’t appreciate. Ha Thank you for a chance to win your very generous give away.

[@lindasavage9708]

I used to help my grandmother get the canning jars ready when I was a little girl. I thought it was so fun!! She always made me feel good about helping her.

[@kbrandt241]

Yet again you blow me away with the many ways of using your appliqué shapes. Those CANNING JARs are too cute and remind me of my cousin’s favorite thing to do with all her veggies and fruits from her extensive garden. Thanks for another fun and informative video, Lori! ❣️

[@carolwalker2858]

I can’t believe I have totally become infatuated with your patterns, fabric, techniques and patterns. I faithfully watch the videos as soon as they are out. I have put away cross stitch for the last twenty years but ,I’m very excited to be using your patterns. Thanks so much for sharing your talents with us!

[@kelseymcculley2582]

Growing up in a small country town I learned to sew and can from my grandmother. I still grow a garden and can every summer using CANNING JARS. These sew simple shapes are adorable and I would love to make so many cute things with them!

[@cindyagallaher3579]

I enjoy watching all the remix episodes and I’m not even a quilter! Maybe someday 😊. I love canning jars! They are so versatile, I use them for so many things. I also remember when I was a kid one of the places we lived we had a garden and grew all kinds of vegetables and we made bread & butter pickles with our cucumbers. So good! Thank you for all the inspiration 😊!

[@sandykaras2270]

These canning jars remind me of my mom canning pickles every year. It was my job to scrub the mountain of cucumbers in the basin outside. I dreaded the job then, but now I look back with fondness at the whole process. A beautiful memory of my mother.

[@cjohnson5771]

I grew up on a dairy farm. Mom canned and quilted. After working 2 jobs most of my life I'm trying to get back into sewing. Love your channel and I'm decorating my sewing room in My Happy Place fabric. Keep doing what your doing. You are amazing!!!!!!!

[@michellechaney5745]

No matter how many appliqué videos I watch of yours, I learn something new every time! This little “Canning Jar” is adorable!!! I think I’m going to make this for a new sewing machine mat and instead of the heart, I’m going to put the tomato in the middle and embroidery straight pins on top of the lid. Then maybe another jar with buttons on it. And then….well the possibilities are endless! ☺️✂️🪡

[@susanglynn7189]

Hi Miss Lori and Cassidy!!! I love this CANNING JAR !!!OMG! So many possibilities! Very cute and looks relatively easy to do! Love 6our creativity! It’s contagious!!! Thanks for all that y’all do and the time you share with us!! Happy stitching!!! Did I say I love this CANNING JAR ? Lol.

[@jamescraig6372]

Really enjoy watching you sew...I always pick up a trick or two. When I was small, I also remember my parents canning, then when I married my father in law always canned using me and his daughters for help. There were always canning jars in all sizes and shapes for the different vegs and fruits he would can.

[@renaeejuszcak2189]

Canning jars are a necessity in my life. I am and have been an avid canner since I was a young girl. I remember working with my mom and grandma, canning to feed a large family for the year to come. I adore these jars and plan to make dozens to use as a string banner. Lori is a genius in the design and sewing world. Thank you for helping me to want to sew more!

[@kathymullins4148]

Cute idea. Brings back memories of helping my granny with her canning. Favorite sound is the pop of the canning jar!

[@Sylvia907]

I’m helping my mom right now in as a 3rd generation in this farm house. All generations took part in canning fruit and vegetables. So many canning jars being used every where. Even old blue ones from hanging out in the sun. A very lovely design of a item that spans generations in my family

[@kaylow1033]

Enjoy watching all that you do and really enjoy listening to you talk about your family and when you were growing up. I remember my mother canning and now I do the same using her canning jar that she used. I remember her filling up every canning jar that she had to feed us during the winter.

[@terrygore6030]

Loved this tutorial for the canning jar. Canning is becoming a lost art now-a-days with our society. I remember my mom having a HUGE garden each year growing up and us canning tomatoes each year. I hated it at the time but now as an adult I’m so glad I learned how to do it. It brought back good memories when I saw the thumbnail when scrolling through KZbin videos.

[@rosemarymiller6480]

Hi Lori…I have been camping this week and couldn’t wait to get home to watch your newest video. We now live in my husband’s mother’s home and my most favorite memory of my kitchen is the day, my Mom, my Mother-in-law and a special friend spent the day canning blackberry jam. The kitchen counter was full of the cutest pint size canning jars with whimsical tops and rings. Our Moms are both gone but that day will never be forgotten.

[@marybethryan8216]

My first intro to canning was while living In Naples, Italy! From 1978-82 I filled canning jars with pickles, tomatoes, spaghetti sauce and needed to leave all my canning jars behind when I left for the states. Since then have resupplied with all sorts of canning jars, mostly from garage sales and very useful for more than canning! I love your videos. Thank you!

[@brendanewsome705]

I love the canning jars. I remember when my mama and granny canned just about everything. All 4 of my sister's and I helped in the garden. It was the best family time together. Love your canning jars.

[@vickiinkansas1399]

From the time I was born until I was 12, my grandparents lived in a two story farmhouse in the country. We visited every weekend. There were many hot hours spent in the kitchen filling up canning jars with bounty from the garden. There’s nothing better than opening a jar of fresh green beans in the middle of winter!

[@katrinaleedy6241]

I just love watching your channel. This canning jar video sure reminds me of my youth when I always helped my grandmother and my Aunts do all the canning. I had the smallest hands so it was my job to clean the jars. My husband has always said I have asbestos hands. I told him it was from cleaning all those jars in a big black pot over a fire lol The best memories!

[@hollyspeichert6120]

The Canning Jar applique technique with your interfacing turned out lovely today. I am still smiling from last weeks crochet, button and key chain tutorial. Your channel is "My Happy Place"! Thank you again.

[@ellenprinsen7954]

Hi Lori and Kassidy, on this rainy Sunday I enjoyed watching the making of the canning jars, I have a few here in my hobby room for all the small things that I mostly can find when I need them ;-) Every time I watch a video of you I get so inspired in my head and I need that so it makes me happy. I love the new Simply Shapes for the Happy Place and would love to join the sew along so I hope that they are selling them here in the Netherlands soon, I will watch for them :-). you are so organised that makes me clean up my room every time your video has ended it clears my head when I get organised too. So thank you for all the inspiration and see you next week !!

[@paulettejennissen7858]

I started canning when I married my husband. We always have a big garden. A couple of veggies I like to can is tomatoes, pickles, potatoes, beets. This year we are going to try canning fish 🐟 I use my canning jars for buttons in my craft room. I have gifted cookie ingredients with a little label with directions. I can never have too many canning jars. Congratulations on your anniversary! I am so happy you share all of your talents and stories !

[@carollyngantz9633]

Thanks for bringing back the memories!! Mom and granny would can for weeks and all of us kids enjoyed the results all through the winter months. Those green canning jars were plentiful at our house! The sharing of your many talents is greatly appreciated.

[@gladtidings4all]

Another great video! I do love CANNING JARS. living in Puerto Rico I can’t find canning jars so I use the Classsico spaghetti jars to build my collection of canning jars to make my own homemade cranberry juice and tomato sauce. I learn to do real canning by watching KZbin! When it’s raining season here, I watch sewing channels, and embroidery which is also my passion. I love all your vintage items you use like your iron!

[@PTTurtle5007]

This CANNING JAR Block brought back happy memories of my playing house in my Grandmothers pantry with all of the different jars of jellies, apple butters, chow chow, tomatoes, corn along with all the colors of the the canned fruits and vegetables. I like that you don’t flatten your blocks like pancakes, but leave a little poof to make it look demential. Love your tutorials I always learn something new and different.

[@ritamerrill3902]

As I was growing up in the '50's, my grandfather would plow and disk a portion of his fields near the farmhouse for my grandmother to put in a large garden. She canned her produce and many times my mom went to help her. Being young, I liked to help but I am certain my "help" was probably not that helpful. Now 65 years later my youngest daughter has discovered the joy of canning and has carried on her great grandmother's passion. I still get to help. I love the tip to mark the stitch points for the embroidery with a ruler to get even stitches and I will definitely try this. I have seen making appliques by using interfacing and turning to get nice smooth edges. This definitely is something I should try. The CANNING JAR turned out so very cute that I think I need to make a set of placemats with them.

[@lindaspost2533]

I love the canning jar. It is so cute. My Mom and I use to do canning and we made pepper jelly. I would love to have had beautiful canning jar like these. Thank you for taking the time and showing us all how to do quilting and appliqué the easy way. You have helped so many of us to get back into quilting by making it fun and easier and so darn cute 🤗❤️

[@melindafisher1584]

I am fortunate to have sweet memories of both grandmothers cooking and stitching. This video is so fun because I use the old and new canning jars for storage in both the kitchen and my sewing room...green glass and clear. Fun to recycle vintage items for decorating use. Your designs are So fun and appreciated!

[@TheLeela630]

I love the old school feeling of your projects. The canning jars remind me of my grandmother. Thanks for all your videos and everything you do.

[@susanoverstreet3640]

When I was younger I did lots of canning. So satisfying to see bottled fruit in canning jars all lined up on the counter after a canning session. Thanks for your great tutorials.

[@paulapainter2969]

I just love that you sew jars but that you also cann your vegetables. Im so thankful that you teach all of your patchwork with tips to your followers . Thank you for shsring

[@debbieeardley8441]

I love how beautiful this canning jar block is and how easy it is to make with your sew simple shapes and sew in interfacing. Thank you for your weekly tutorials.

[@kellyhipkins5616]

Lori i so am blown away on your talent so enjoy and thankful that tou share this with the world. We were raised on a farm and still to this day we freeze and can. We did find some old canning jar that were used for grape juice when we had grapevines. So love this time of year. Bless you for sharing 🙏 ❤

[@debblws1961]

The canning jars are adorable. They remind me of canning with my mom as a child and then as an adult showing my daughter how to can. What a beautiful memory and pattern to use to make memories.

[@marye4992]

I had to watch this video in at least two segments. We had our 4 year old granddaughter here and I stopped the video to watch later as I didn’t want to miss any of it. Have watched almost every one of your videos and seen the appliqué before and keep thinking “I have to try it!”. The jars are beyond darling. My mom used to can tomatoes and I am pretty sure I remember her canning pears. Our family has canned salsa many times with my father-in-law. Quite a production out in his garage. Many jars of yummy salsa to last until the next year. Thank you for your wonderful tutorials!

[@joannek.6978]

Lori your video on canning jar applique can't help but put everyone in a good mood! There are endless ways to use these simple shapes and your delightful accessories! Thank you!

[@sandrakramer2642]

CANNING Jar, one of the things I like is that you work through these patterns and tutorials in a smooth, methodical way, and SO cute! I know this isn't cross stitch but canning jar lids were the first things I learned to cross stitch.

[@teresaevans3083]

I remember so many summers spent with my grandparents and many many Canning jars filled with such wonderful things. It was my job to line them up for filling. The canning jar block warms my heart.

[@pamlacey136]

The emphasis on a canning jar brings back lots of good memories of helping in the garden every year which resulted in all of the good food through the winter too. My grandmother would be thrilled to see that I am living on the farm!! Thanks and happy quilting and stitching………………

[@jenniferjungels]

You have the best videos and tutorials! You make everything that seems intimidating look so simple and achievable. I have lots of canning jar storage all over my house. My husbands grandmother gave me all of her jars before she passed and I have found ways to use them for so many things. Thank you for sharing all your wisdom with us and making me realize I can do all these things I never thought I could before!

[@barbaraw9155]

I learned how to can from my great great aunt when I was a young girl and to this day a “canning jar” never looks complete until the top has that little piece of fabric tied to the top. Your fabric and designs always bring me back to my childhood, thank you!

[@jaimemaranville1049]

I love your Canning Jar blocks! You make applique look so easy! I have the vintage housewife kit that I will be working on with my mom and my grandma. A cherished 3 generation quilt! Neither of them quilt, but together we can make it beautiful! Thank you for your videos and amazing fabric, they really do bring me joy!

[@dawnloya8523]

I love the canning jar with the heart!! I grandmother used to use them when I was little and had sleepovers I would help her can pears and apples. I use them for fabric scraps! Haha!! And the small ones I just learned to add a pincushion to the top!! I love the applique. It is absolutely a calming hobby and your tutorials have really broadened my knowledge and creativity using the shapes for all sorts of different ideas other than the original patterns!! Thank you!!!! Thank you!!!!

[@gaylenedavis7880]

Oh my gosh Lori I just love your canning jar design!! I can not wait to make some of these for my granddaughters, they love playing with jars full of old buttons that my grandmother and Mother saved ! I think I will make some of the canning jars and add your buttons on them, My two granddaughters will just be in love!! Thank you so much for all that you share with us!!

[@donnacline8651]

Hi, I love watching you do your sewing applications. You explain everything so well. Watching you reminds me of watching my grandmother. Growing up she would make quick gifts for her community. I now know how special those people felt who received a gift.

[@kimberlycardoza5890]

I love all you patterns, but this canning jar pattern is my favorite so far. It brings back memories of the days with my mom and grandmother when they would do their canning when I was little.

[@itsmelaura1533]

I bought 4 lovely blue glass quart size CANNING JARS last month. I used one already to pickle eggs. I also bought your set of Cute Cuts Trimming rulers. I watched one of your videos where you show how you use them and knew right away that I needed a set to help me with my HSTs. They have been a tremendous help on my current quilt! I think what I like best is that you have so many tips, tricks and techniques to make quilting more enjoyable and fun. I adore the colors that you use in all your art.

[@cindyparish63]

Hi Lori, I love the new design you are doing with the cute CANNING JAR, this is a design that can be used in so many ways for quilts, home decor and gifts. My husband and I love to can a lot of our own foods and we use a lot of these little jars all over the house. I can’t wait to make a table runner with the..

[@stephaniez.hironimus4007]

Lori, my Nana, whom I adored, had shelves in her basement lined with canning jars of so many delicious canned fruits and vegetables. When my grandparent's house was sold, I made sure to take as many jars as I could... the older jars are so beautiful & the glass itself has designs in it (such as flowers). I just love them! This giveaway is amazing- thank you for your tutorial & generosity!

[@lorettabyers1681]

My grandparents and mother canned every summer. I grew up with canning jars that were used for the obvious and also everything else from catching lighting bugs to storing paper clips and rubber bands. I love watching your videos to see what you are currently sewing.

[@margaretamiller9679]

This cute little canning jar remix is my favorite one you have done so far! I am working on your Autumn Love quilt kit, and love your applique method... total game changer! Now I love applique! I think my favorite part of this video is just seeing your creative process. Thanks for always sharing your fun ideas!

[@rebeccaparrish8919]

What a generous giveaway and I love this little jar block! I still have some of my dad's canning jars and remember the good ol days watching him work his magic! 🤩🤩

[@judyprince1115]

This canning jar reminds me of my Grandmother and all of the foods she would can for the families. What makes it doubly sweet is that she was a quilter too. Thank you so much for your creativity that you always share with all of us.

[@lauriehopper3193]

Lori Holt, everything you do is amazing and user friendly! The canning jars are bright and homey-just like everything you do! I made your Cottage Quilt patterns and it was so easy to follow! I truly believe God has blessed you with an extraordinary talent and I never tire of watching you!💓

[@sandifurlow1270]

Your canning jar applique is perfectly timed for the coming "Fall bounty & blessings!" I can see me making many to place on tea towels. Then sharing the canning jar towel with a filled jar of goodness from the garden. I also see your 'Canning Jar' applique used during other seasons too. Cocoa & candy canes & marsh mellow fabric for Winter, Jelly beans, eggs and candy for Easter, Ohhhhh, how my mind is very excited from your video on the Canning Jars! Thank You for sharing your talent & skills. I hope this comment makes it in time for the drawing too.

[@suew9307]

Good morning, I love, love, love your very cute CANNING JAR video, the My Happy Place shapes and you, Lori, for bringing a ton of happiness to my sewing world.

[@janicebadeau]

I love this one, Lori! Um, what I liked about this episode was....Sweet Baby James! Oh, gosh, how cute is he?!!! Of course I also loved the canning jar tutorial, too! I think I'll make some canning jars and applique them to plain white feed sack towels to give away as gifts for Christmas! LOVE THIS!! Thank you - I appreciate you!

[@suearsenault4722]

One of my favorite decorating things are mason jars. Love to put wild flowers or candy in them put in the bathroom for cotton and q-tips etc. so I love the idea that I can also use them in my sewing projects as well. I love your fabrics and have purchased some and the books to create vintage and farm girl quilts. Really Love your sewing room and love watching your videos! Addicted! Thanks

[@kellyhorner1427]

Thank you so much for your videos! I have learned so much from you. I love “sweet baby James”! James Taylor is who I listen to when sewing. Seeing the canning jars has brought back lots of memories of my Mom and grandparents.

[@Marijane55]

I love the canning jar pattern. I would make a wall hanging in memory of my two great-aunts , Mimi and Montine. They canned pickled Seckel pears every year from a tree in their backyard. It was a family favorite and we enjoyed having some every time our families got together . Thank you for all your ideas!

[@reneejohnson5041]

Thanks again, Lori for another great tutorial! Loving this home-iness" canning jar pattern. I have had a love for canning jars for years, as I have been canning for at least 40 years. my son still uses them to drink his water and tea out of. Thanks again Lori. You are so talented!!

[@bethkoch11]

Canning Jar - So cute! This brings back such great memories of my Grandma, and helping her with the canning, especially the peaches! I really loved those! I can see the rows and rows of beautiful jars with canned vegetables and fruit, and her home-made grape jelly.

[@emspaulding8050]

This is so cute your a marvelous sewing person 💓👏.canning jars stacked in a row.with green beans,beets, pickles so sweet;down the cellar stairs I'd go to get something good for dinner,you know . Love the canning jar pattern it's on my list of things to do for sure. Keep up the good work Lori 👍🍅🧵

[@donnadailey5062]

Not quite sure how recent this was posted, but thank you for another great tutorial. I love the canning jars and especially like the heart on square label and your added hand stitching to frame the heart. I especially love the project zippy bags you have, am going to make a couple, different sizes, and send to my daughter. She'll appreciate the canning jar being added to one and I think I'll add a flower from your design to the other. You're always so good at explaining everything... love your tutorials. Thanks again for sharing your time and talent. Looking forward to the next tutorial... these are my therapy!

[@mollymo-57]

Oh my gosh Lori, I love all your designs. I’m a canner and I will be making a runner with the “canning jars”! My grandma Vance and my mom and 3 aunties were all canners! That’s how I learned to sew, cook and can! My sister and I will be doing the Flea market flowers together over FaceTime since she is in Michigan and I’m in Central Illinois! We watch all your videos and eagerly await each and every one of them! Thank you so much for sharing all you do! Hugs! ❤️❤️

[@JanetDoucette]

The canning jar appliques that you showed are so cute!!! I loved the color of your sewing machine, I had never thought to have one painted!!! The rain outside sounded so good, a perfect stay in your happy place and play day!!!

[@paulahutt4116]

I just had to laugh---I just finished canning tomatoes for the first time in my life---over 60, too. All went well, but I now have a new appreciation for my mother, grandmother, and others that did this every season. I can’t wait to make a table runner for my kitchen ---this will be easier than the real thing! Thanks for all of your inspiration and creativity which you so willingly share!

[@sharonsmith1763]

I enjoyed your tutorial because it reminded me of a favorite memory. The afternoon in the summertime was spent in front of the TV watching what mom and I called the “soaps” while we shelled peas or butter beans, shucked corn, capped strawberries, etc. in preparation for the canning jars. What a fun time we had together.

[@tuchgo1]

Hi, I'm lookin forward to your videos every week. You brought the joy of sewing to my life . My life is full again with sewing like a canning jar fool of sweets. Thank you

[@lindanahler413]

Love the Canning Jar video. Your fabrics remind me of my childhood days with my Grandma. Love your fabrics. I have a huge collection of blue jars that I use to put all kinds of things in, not only in the sewing room but also in the kitchen.

[@jeanniemonroe6509]

As a child I remember watching my grandmother and her four daughters can and freezer bag all the different vegetables from the garden. Today I continue canning each year. I always do tomatoes and made pickels this year. I also like to do jellies and apple butter in the fall. Thanks for all your tutorials, I always refer back to them time and time again.

I love your canning jar tutorial. I use canning jars all the time canning fruits, vegetables, making jelly, sauces and homemade spice mixes. Lori, you have been so generous with your time, expertise and products, thank you!

Lori your designs are so much fun and beautiful. I love your canning jar appliqué and I love your technique in when using bias tape maker. Your fabrics are just beautiful and I am a big fan. Although I am new to quilting...I am just so inspired by your videos, line of products and easy to follow instructions! I look forward to Fridays.

I just got all my canning jars out. Getting ready to make my bread and butter pickles and grape jelly. So when I saw your video I had to get your fabric so I could make a canning jar wall hanging for my kitchen. Love all your stuff Lori. My house. Is all vintage. Love it all!!! Thank you for all you teach us

Thankful for this video as I not only learned some cute little tricks for applique, but it engendered some sweet memories of my grandma and her CANNING JARs all lined up with her produce from her garden. I dearly loved her and all she taught me including how to eat a healthy diet and QUILT!

I love how you name all of your Featherweights. I especially love, love, love James Taylor and I'm so glad you named one after him. I use canning jars a lot in my decor throughout my house, so I think I'm going to follow one of your suggestions to make a row of the canning jars into a table runner. You are so creative, Lori, and this ReMix video of the canning jar was awesome as usual.

Thank you for the video. I love the canning jar blocks; so cute! My mother used to preserve fruit and vegetables and made jam. She used many canning jars for this. I use the small canning jars in my sewing room to store buttons, beads, ribbon, and other small stitching supplies and display them on a shelf unit.

Lori, I enjoy/like/appreciate your videos because you take your time and patiently demonstrate each step and piece. It gives us confidence to do it too and know it will turn out nicely. I loved your idea of putting the CANNING JAR on a project bag. Thank you! Have a wonderful week. Hugs

I love the canning jar applique!! Actually, I love everything "canning jar". I use canning jars mostly in my sewing room and kitchen but usually find a need for one in other parts of the house too. I always learn so much by watching your videos and I love how they are done. Thanks for all the great ideas and tutorials.

Loved this fun tutorial on the canning jars. It reminds me of my Aunt Erna from Denmark, who would can figs each year and they were amazing. Thank you for sharing your creativity with us and making the world so much cuter and reminiscent of the past, which I love. I love all things vintage. And thank you for this very generous opportunity! :)
