Good afternoon! Thank you coming by for a visit and for the comments on the blueberry pie. Sadly, it is all gone now. :0)
I have been in an extra crafty mood lately and I must have berries on my mind. I made this strawberry jam cover from felt and it was a lot of fun. My friend, Clarice made a lovely rose version. I know a lot of you are making homemade strawberry jam this time of year and a jar with one of these covers would make a great Christmas gift!
Tiny strawberries with french knots.
And another strawberry on top. Please visit Luckykate Crafts for the great tutorial.
I was also looking through my fabric stash and came across a small strip of strawberry print that I've had for at least 10 years.
I paired it up with some red and white polka dot fabric and sewed it to the bottom of a white kitchen towel.
Thank you for taking a look!

I love finding treasure in my own home. Ones that were forgotten about. Then they are new all over again. What fun! Hope you are enjoying the sunshine!

What??? I come back from visiting my sons and now there's no more blueberry pie left??? Aaarrggghhhh!! hehe It sure looked good...our wild blueberries are now in season so hopefully there will be a nice day when I can go pick some.

I love the strawberry covers...sooo cute. And the dish towel really turned out great. Wish I could sew but...just can't. I'm not crafty at all and am in awe of those that are!

What an elegant towel! And so simple too. Love it!
The jam cover is just too cute.
Kelli, these are wonderful! Wouldn't something similar make wonderful gifts to give? I'm going to add them to my gift basket list. Thank you!
You are so talented, Kelli! The jam cover and towel are both wonderful.

Hi Kelli!
I found your blog last week and I LOVE it!
By the way, I left you something on my blog.
Very sweet Kelli! I love to dress up my jam jars for gift giving, so this will be a nice addition to my options! Last year I used pretty scrapbook papers and made fancy labels for the tops - that was fun too!
Very sweet and a wonderful gift idea!
You're so Clever! Very Sweet! :)
Your work is so beautiful and I love coming here to learn new crafts and recipes you post. My bloglines is showing I have missed 13 posts of yours, time to catch up Kelli. Have a nice day! xoxoxo
Very clever ideas for strawberry season. Wouldn't they make lovely gifts?
Simply beautiful! I love your jam cover!!
Kelli, seriously - you are the craftiest person I know! You make the cutest things! And you are a true inspiration to me. You can give Martha a run for her money. :-)
I love the jam topper, and the towel edging. I have quite a bit of odds and ends fabric in my stash, and now I know what to do with it. Thanks for the great ideas.

How sweet! The small details really make the difference!
I used to give strawberry jam as teachers gifts for Christmas. The jam covers would have been an added bonus.
You are so industrious! And in that Texas heat, wow. Don't you ever get lazy?
That is just darling! I love it!

You seem to have the greatest ideas and such wonderful recipes. I am planning to try the oven baked ribs. They look absolutely delicious!
This is so sweet and so inviting.
It's always a pleasure to stop by and visit.
