Cross stitch Jam Jars
It is Spring for some of us, and too early yet to plant out tender Annuals. I am already thinking of Autumn Harvest and all the tasty treats I would like to put up.

Teensy fruits and vegetables motifs can be found easily, and chosen to correspond with whatever tasty bits are in the jar.
A Fruit and Vegetable Alphabet by Vermillion Stitchery has some great designs which may work well for lids or labels.
