Pantry quilt

 I'm doing nothing I should be doing. haha

For the past many (18) years, my pantry has had 2 pieces of fabric hanging over the doorway.  It has worked just fine for all those years.

UNTIL....I saw this on Facebook last month.....a pantry quilt!

Now, those pieces of fabric look so tacky and ugly. 

I have been scouring ebay and fabric stores for fabrics to use. The goal is before the end of the year, my pantry will have this cool pantry quilt covering the doorway.

I found some paper piecing patterns that would work....mixing bowls.

Luckily, I have embroidery patterns for jars. I perhaps should have used a darker color for the background, but the pantry is in a hallway and I didn't want it to be too dark.

I have lots more goodies coming to put in jars....popcorn, nacho chips, biscuits, potato chips, pretzels, coffee beans, dollar bills, chocolate bars, and chocolate candies.

Wish I could find some cereal box fabric and other box things like mac and cheese and pastas and such. I might have to get down to fabric with veggies and fruits but I was holding out for cooler stuff. haha
