Bug jar patterns could be found here: http://www.winnowing.com/babyjars.html http://quiltmaker.com/currentissue/104/project11/ (tells you where you can find it from a Quiltmaker magazine) http://www.snowflake-designs.com/FREE%20BUG%20JAR%20QUILT%20PATTERN.htm http://quilting.about.com/library/bl_jar%20block.htm *** http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Hollow/2634/pattern2.html (this is what is being used for a swap in a group that I am a member of) *** http://quiltingpassion.com/blocks/JARS%20of%20BUGS%201.01.pdf *** looks like the best one so far HTH - Brenda -

My little bugs are headed out in the mail tomorrow. I had Pat's address from the flower fq swap. Carman, I expect yours will take a little while to get over the border-never ceases to amaze me how long it takes to get from here to Canada! Lyn

Carman I wondered if I made it in the bug swap? I didn;t get an email. I had emailed you privately instead of the board, as I was having trouble getting in. Let me know please Deb "Quilters make great comforters."

Hey all, just wanted to let you know, I believe I have everyone's and I should be able to get mine sent out a little later this week (I've had in-laws in town all last week, and before that didn't have a clue when I would be able to get them out). Ticia |

Hey all! I have been gone for a while. Took a trip up to Illinois to see family. I think I have received from everyone but Carman. My husband came home from the post office with an armload of squishies. It wasn't quite fair all he got was an armload of bills.
