The Adorable I Spy Jar Quilt Tutorial

[@sandybruce9092]

I am watching this video in July 2023 and having such a good time! I’ve always wanted to make an I Spy quilt the “usual” way and have forgotten about Jenny making jars! Love going back and watching or rewatching videos from times past😄😄😄😄😄

[@irisdove4574]

From Iris Dove. I love this quilt! I do a lot of canning. My son inherited my love and satisfaction of canning, so for Christmas I made him a pint jar quilt using the farmers market charms. I backed it with fabric with peppers since he grows a lot of peppers. He loved it and it was a big hit on Facebook. It was my first quilt .

[@bettywhittington625]

Iris Dove that is so clever. I'm sure my sister and daughter would love one of those also

[@reboot530]

Jenny is the best!!!!! I love her sense of humor..... I love all the geat ideas!!! Way to go Jenny. I love the bloopers where she is talking about the no electronic gadgets in the call and her cell phone rings.... The best!!!!!! Being a guy who quilts I get looks and things. My children and wife love them so thats all that matters. Also Jenny makes me want to quilt even more! Thanks keep up the great work! Aaorn

[@mtnquilts]

And really, the tip for making the jar lids.....priceless! This quilt couldn't get any easier! Thanks!

[@etlzjj84]

Great way to use up scraps as well! I plan on using a wood fabric to make "shelves" for my jars.

[@DS-ky9dl]

You have the best and most fun tutorials!! With a little creativity you could put tons of different fabrics in those jars! So many possibilities... I love it.

[@audreyderby7638]

We used to do licence plates….in cities. On hwy we had words for bikes, buses, horses, etc. wishi had seen your I Spy quilts. Maybe I’ll try one for my great grandchildren….thank you, Jenny. You’re amazing!

[@helenbrown5215]

Best teacher ever

[@momzak2009]

I just love your tutorials. I wish I lived near by to hang out. Love the look of the new store.

[@bremer516]

Great idea for a quilt, and I don't have any grandchildren - yet. Love the "pint" jars! Thanks Jenny!

[@vstargirl63]

I love your videos, your store, your staff, and you and your family. What a treasure to have what you do available for us all. GOD Bless you all.

[@Gigi-fv9ky]

Oh my gosh...I can totally see doing this pattern for those of us who can. You could do peaches, apples, tomatoes, green beans, jalapenos, etc. Tons of fruits and veggies. How fun would that be!

[@101oogie]

Another great inspiration.... how much fun.... and Jenny,,, so good for me to see another person who "pulls the thread, and goes to the next corner, without cutting it".... Jenny and i are from the same short-cut school... people always frown when i do things.. the the end result is just as much fun!!!! keep the fun coming...hugs B

[@Memeoffour4]

I love, love this tutorial and am putting it on my list. My grandkids will love quilts like this and Jenny makes it look so easy. Great idea for Christmas!!!

[@thebeatonpath]

Jenny, another wonderful video! I can't believe I just now ran across this video after watching one of your other amazing videos because it is PERFECT timing! I have been collecting fruit, veg, candy & bread fabrics for about five years to make my brother and SIL a pantry quilt to hang in their kitchen. I may have to order those layer cakes just in case I don't have enough. I can't wait to tackle this project now!

[@Brenda1K]

Thanks Jenny. You always make things easier. I love watching all your videos. I have been wanting to do this quilt for a long time. I now can pound these out for all the special children in my life. Can't wait until I get all the things I need. I wonder why in a lot of your videos they start and stop often. Maybe just my computer. I'll watch you anyway no matter how often it burps. Thanks for doing this video. My day is made. Brenda

[@coquetscache]

I'm making this for grand son to be here in the spring. Gotta say this is the MOST fun quilt pattern ever! Thanks so much for posting this tutorial =)

[@Stitcherlee]

Yaay! I have the layer cake and it is the next on my lists to quilt. Now I have the perfect quilt for my little granddaughter to make the most of the layer cake. Now to order the plain colour jelly rolls to go with. Jenny you are a complete legend :)

[@ktmint8495]

If you flip the square upside down and use bright batiks it would look like Japanese Lanterns.

[@ruthstueber5973]

Thanks for a great idea for a kids quilt. Your tutorials are the best.

[@babylover0990]

I love this quilt!! another great way to use up scraps of fabric!! I especially like the quart jars, but I think it would look awesome to make every other jar be quart and the other ones be pint. I am going to have to make this quilt!! how many grandkids do you have?

[@deblaquinta1]

okay I will keep checking back with you, I am dying to make this and want to wait for the printable directions. I am so very, very happy to hear that you will be getting printable directions to all of the videos, Love IT!!! Thanks again and I love all the videos.

[@catsprotectbananas66]

This is really cool! Thank you Jenny for sharing!

[@EllenMHelms]

I remember playing the I Spy game along with the Alphabet game :-) Here's another example of looking at a quilt and thinking "it's complicated"...then you made the jar lid strip and it was such an "OH MY GOSH!!" moment! I've had so many of those moments watching your tutorials, thank you so very much for your clear instructions and the love you have for the craft! So many quilts to make ;-o

[@Suds888]

Jenny, you've done it again! I love this idea.

[@jostovall5491]

Love the Quart I Spy Jar Quilt Tutorial ~ thank you for sharing! So cute!

[@dianenickerson4744]

This is my favorite tutorial! I am looking forward to making some for my grandchildren!! I think they will love them, too.

[@mlt150]

A new video is like Christmas Day. I cannot wait to open to see what Jenny is going to show me!!

[@stephiepeterson]

Another great tutorial. It is so brilliant to get layer cakes with I Spy fabrics! How great is that! Thanks for all your fun videos and ideas!

[@virginia7191]

Love this one! It has all kinds of possibilities! The contents of the jars could be of the favorite items of the person the quilt is for: unicorns for my niece, cars and trucks for my nephew, etc. Thanks!

[@kwalden801]

This is adorable. You explain things so well. Love your videos.

[@judywilliams2159]

I love your tutorials. I really want to make your I spy quilt and I'm so looking forward to finding the fabrics. Keep up the great work

[@757plp51]

I loved this so much I ordered the layercake. Can't wait to get started, Thanks for the wonderful Turorial, you rock!

[@lsayegh1]

Lovely Quilt! thanks Jenny for your tutorial. I'm going to add it to my list.

[@abitagirl51]

I just cracked up at the end when her phone rang. Probably one of her grandchildren. Love the quilt, can't wait to make it.

[@karena729]

Hi Jenny, This is a great tutorial! Can't wait to make the I Spy Quilt, so I just ordered the Pastel Layer Cake. Thanks for the idea!

[@MissouriQuiltCo]

Thank you for that kind note Carol, I love reading youtube comments and smiling :)

[@lindadaley7469]

Terrific tutorial and idea! Gotta make 3 of these for my Grandkids!

[@alicebohmer545]

I love this tutorial! I ordered the pack this summer & made it for my 6 year old grandson for Christmas. I also added some of the many novelty print scraps I've accumulated over the years. It went together quickly & he loves it! I'm having some trouble adding the photo.

[@carolynyoung4469]

Did you do pint jars? Have mine ready to sew together but not sure how to finish the shorter 6 block rows. Just made the blocks according to the video.

[@GINBART54]

Yea a new one. So glad to see this and I love your nails.

[@mallorieanderson799]

I know right :) I showed it to him and he said "If you want it get it, we could use another quilt!" Best hubby ever! Now to wait for July 12 to order. Woo-hoo!

[@donnasmith6255]

Thankyou so much for this idea. I am going to make one each for my grandchildren.

[@gwendolinesanderson8772]

I am now going to make the three dudes quilt, it look really nice. Im from the UK and like to look at videos you put out fantastic.

[@bethanybringsbooks]

I just love these quilts! so cute!

[@gelfling9uk]

Love this tutorial! I'm in the UK and only 2-3 years in to quilting (so still a newb I guess), but have never come across these jars before - fantastic idea. I always wondered what those novelty prints were for (!!) and this will be a great one to try out for my 2 kids. Thanks for another amazing and fun video. ^^ p.s. Still loving that iron and the new setting looks perfect for displaying those great quilts!

[@joycehill2342]

Love the video, you make everything seem so easy. Can't wait to check my stash and make one up. Thanks for sharing.

[@dslvs2red]

this is adorable, I just love all of your videos. I've just finished your double slice quilt, it looks fantastic!

[@joyceantons2290]

Love this quilt..so much fun to make.

[@mermaidmemoirs]

I love, love, love this idea!

[@PSmith549]

Did you notice the dog wearing a Union Jack waistcoat in one of the big "jars"? Makes Missouri seem a lot closer to the UK, doesn't it? I absolutely love the videos, and Jenny is such an inspiration to me, despite my being on the other side of the world! Brilliant!

[@LMGnh]

Great tutorial!! Loved the blooper at the end LOL :)

[@GeorgiaStull]

I was just in your "studio" and saw that quilt on the wall! Great to visit with you Jenn! I would have to have MU fabric in my I Spy quilt!

[@Brenda1K]

Just wanted to let you know that I watched the video again and no burps. Guess it's my computer. Thanks again for this fun video. All you guys are great. Brenda.

[@GmaAlice]

Thanks so much for this tutorial. Oh the quart jars I helped Mama fill when we were canning in the summer time way back when. I think I'll look for some vegetable fabric and try this if I get brave enough.

[@PinkGirlyGeek8705]

AHHH!!! A new video! My day is made!!! Thanks guys!!

[@lauriegraham1936]

Thank you for inspiring me once again!

[@MissouriQuiltCo]

We're so happy that we were able to do that!! :) Happy quilting!

[@lillianchung1196]

I spy ja

[@KnitandCrochet424]

My little girl loves I Spy and this is something that she would just eat up and have lots of fun with.

[@MissouriQuiltCo]

It was filmed in our new shop (which is about a minute away from our old one). We have a studio there dedicated to our tutorials, where mom can let her creativity loose :)

[@miss_glam_tastictutorials9754]

I have made two of these quilts took me longer looking for the fabric to use than it did to make both. I had some fabric that had lizards on it and to use it I made it look like a gallon jar laying on the side and took the place of two jars on a row. It turned out great. My grandson loved it and the other one I made for my sister-in-law to play I SPY with her first grandchild

[@lindaatoler1541]

I Love the quilt and Thank you for the Pattern Video , I got to make one well 4 lol.Thanks, Linda A ,WV

[@TheBrazilianTatter]

Hi Jenny, love your video's! Thank you for sharing. Hugs...

[@eileenmurrow1237]

One of my grand babies loves bugs. So, we had jars of bugs. It was so fun collecting the fabrics.

[@pomomary]

Yay!!! A new tutorial! Love the MSQC!!

[@pranalikarekar4710]

Its just gorgeous ..

[@ellenchwastyk3493]

A wood grain for the horizontal sashing would make it look like jars on a shelf! Very cute.

[@maryseul7630]

Fantastic! Eldest daughter gave me a fat qr pack of bright fruity fabrics because she didn't know what to do with them. I put them away because I didn't know what to do with them. NOW!! I DO!!. Will be in US mid-Dec to late Jan, so maybe, just maybe I will get a chance to call in:) MS -Australia

[@ShellyAuen]

Love, LOVE, Love MO Star Videos!!! I learn so much. Keep up the GREAT work!!!!!!! :)

[@lmrushing7375]

I think pint jar border would be cute. Even maybe with solids. Watched this years ago and just watched again and that idea came to me

[@MissouriQuiltCo]

Try it out and send pics! We'd love to see it!

[@veecastro6028]

just got this pattern in the mail today. can't wait to try

[@carolynyoung4469]

Have blocks ready to put in rows but not sure WHAT to do with the shorter (6) jars. Making the PINT size quilt.

[@lpen7]

Soooo fun! Can't wait to try this. Any chance you guys have the novelty layer cakes left? Don't think, even I, could hunt down all those fabulous prints! Love this!

[@Петровная-х3щ]

Дженни! !! Ты лучшая! !! Люблю твои уроки!!! Хотя не знаю английского языка...но все ясно и понятно !! Будь здорова! !

[@theREmissionary]

This can be done as a QAYG, I think. I love this idea; this is the third one I've looked at tonight, and they're all a little different.

[@clkingtx]

I love this quilt!

[@AthenaSchroedinger]

I love the idea for this quilt! Thank you for sharing.

[@susieqmcf]

Oh. One more thing. I love watching this on iPhone app!!!!

[@susangordon1572]

Just finished making my first I Spy quilt -- thanks for the inspiration and the great instructions. Would love to upload to show it to you but don't know how! Anyway, thanks!

[@truerdonly]

i started making the jars, then my daughter came over, loot them and said ,( honey pots). now i,m making a winnie the pooh baby quilt, with a honey border. thanks for the tutorial. have learned so much.

[@diannetabor]

Really enjoyed the tutorial, Jenny! You are an inspiration to all of us! Hope to someday soon get out to meet you in person and do some shopping at your new store! Lol. How does it feel to be infamous? Lol.

[@Alyssayarborough01]

Such a cute idea!!!!

[@marietteforget7804]

Thanks a lot, it’s a great idea ! 🌸🌺

[@cc83jc85]

what BRAND iron would that be pls?? I love it!! srpings up all on its own! WOW!

[@bettyochoa4099]

so cute!

[@Kizyx1307]

Love this idea! On the quilt on the wall, is the off set just an extra piece of sashing on one side or the other of the row? Thanks for all the great tutorials!!

[@mtnquilts]

I've always had a hard time sewing corner to corner on squares that are of a darker fabric. (On lighter fabrics I take a ruler and draw a line.) The thought never even occured to me to iron it and then sew down the crease! Thanks so much for the inspiration!

[@MissouriQuiltCo]

It's an Oliso Auto Lift Pro, hope that helps!

[@janetcortes7494]

That's a cute quilt. I'm going to make it. It will be my first time. I'm curious. What are the measurements of the finish quilt?

[@BluddEHell]

The iron. THE IRON!! Amazing :-)

[@nancyfite8066]

I love this quilt and am about finished with my first one for my great-nephew Isaac. My question is what type of pattern did you use to quilt the finished top? Seems like it needs more than a simple "stitch in the ditch."

[@judylitton4198]

I love this 😀❤

[@susieqmcf]

What an adorable quilt ! 1 question. Looks like the rows on the pint size quilt are offset. How did you do that?

[@jennydoan57]

Yes this is my new studio! We saved the old barn wood for the wall. I love it!

[@mileyondisney5588]

Hydraulics on the iron? Radical!

[@Stitcherlee]

Jenny, is the block "finished" with smashing on one side so there is 2 inches between each jar? Or do I sash each side and then sew together? Bit new to this sorry..... Love this quilt. Have all the fabric ready to go. Thanks for your wonderful tutorials :)
