Sewing Whimsey Jar

As per the request, I am starting a whimsey jar swap. I haven't done one of these in a while, so if there is anything you can think of to tweek it a bit, let me know and I'll see about changing it!!

I'm going to make this USA & Canada only. If you want to do an international version, you are more then welcome to create one!

The jar you use can be any kind of jar as long as you decorate it in a pretty way. If you use clear glass, be sure to decorate the lid at least. The size requirment is that the top needs to measure AT LEAST 3 inches wide and the jar needs to be AT LEAST 4 inches tall. It can absolutely be bigger, but anything smaller will not meet swap requirements.

For this, you will FIND A WAY to fit at least 8 of the following items:

1. zipper

2. spool of thread

3. embroidery floss

4. safety pins

5. scissors

6. 10 buttons of any size

7. tailors chalk or pencil

8. thread ripper

9. Thimble

10. FQ

11. straight pins

12. quilting pins

13. sewing needles

14. sewing machine needles

15. 3 yards of ribbon...one continuous piece

16. snaps of some kind to use in projects

17. bobbins

18. 1 yard of velcro of any color (must be both pieces)

19. an item you have made

20. a surprise item not listed on the list

This is senders choice (a great way to clear out the stuff you may not use anymore!), so you can get started on it right away.

If you can find a way to stuff more in the jar, you absolutely can if you want to!

Requirements:

• Must have a rating of at least 4.9

• Must have at least participated in 10 package swaps

• If you flake, I WILL report you to the group founders. We don't want flakers int he swap!

• I reserve the right to ban anyone that I get a funny feeling about.
