Over the past few days, I’ve had several requests for bags to fit quart size jars.  I updated the Jars to Go Single pattern yesterday, adding a quart size.  Lots of people like to bring salad in a wide-mouth quart jar, so there you go!

But I kept on thinking… why stop there?  Wouldn’t a regular-mouth half pint be adorable?  It’s not overwhelmingly useful for bringing lunch, but:

• Cute doesn’t need a reason.
• Would be great for those jars of jelly or jam that I KNOW you’re giving as a Christmas gift to the postal carrier, or the neighbor, or the teacher.
• You could bring a snack?  Yogurt?  Trail mix?
• Baby food?  Especially if you make your own.
• Or a little one who wants a jar bag “just like mommy’s” or “just like daddy’s”?

Just a note:  These photos show my prototype quart and half pint bags.  You might notice that the half pint seems a little “tight”.  I added a little height to the finished pattern, after making this one.  So, no worries – bags made by the current pattern should be just right.
