Pumpkin jelly jar covers. . .



I altered the pumpkin candy pattern (Marlo's Crochet Corner) to make these!!! A couple of women from the office came and got me and took me back to my car last Friday when I locked myself out (seeing as how my husband, who was on vacation, was not willing to help me and I had to call a locksmith). So, I made these bags to hold half pint jars of homemade blackberry jelly as a thank you. (I always make a few half pints when making jelly for just such an occasion!) Funny enough, they thought they were candle holders so I have a brilliant idea for Christmas gifts—these in red with fuzzy white trim around pint candles!! I will also make one in black/white variegated yarn for Jackie who likes zebra and cheetah prints! Oh the possibilities are endless and my fingers are itching to get started!!!

It is finally Friday and I am thrilled for this week to be over! Not that I am doing anything spectacular over the weekend—VB game on Sat. and church on Sun.—but the time to rest and sleep is gonna be wonderful!!
