About | The Fabric Jar | Cleveland Tennessee

When two nurses who share the same passion for quilting meet and become friends, special creative things are bound to happen. We are looking for a creative outlet to expand our love of quilting and all things fabric to others who share the same passion we have. It is freeing to have this fabric haven to look forward to while going through these trying times of being a nurse. We welcome you to our shop and hope to spread the simple joy of creating lasting memories through making quilted goods.

I'm a wife, momma of two little boys, a nurse, quilter, and enthusiast of everything involving fabric and quilting.

I started sewing small projects in 2014 after my mother gifted me a Singer Simple sewing machine. Then I made my first quilt in 2015 after being self-taught from YouTube videos. I fell in love with the entire process of quilt making. I've continued to accrue more quilting supplies and up-graded my sewing machine in the course of time that I've been quilting. Throughout making each project, I couldn't bear to throw away the pretty little scraps of fabric I'd trimmed off. So, I picked out a special glass jar, unique to each project, to keep my fabric scraps in, therefore creating a fabric jar.

I hope to always have quilting be a part of my life and continue making quilts for my family and friends. And if there's a quilt, a fabric jar will follow!

I am a wife, nurse, and avid crafter.

I was introduced to quilting through my time as an oncology nurse. My patient's wife would bring in beautiful quilts for his bed every week. We would talk and she became my mentor in the quilting process.

I began doing memory quilts when my friend's dad passed and I wanted to do something for her. The look on her face when I gave her a quilt made from her dad's shirts and ties will stay with me forever. It gives me great joy to give other people that special joy through the quilting process.
