I made a super fun and easy
jelly roll quilt over the weekend...
The pattern is by Fat Quarter Shop
and is another awesome pattern
from thier YouTube
Short Cut Quilts Series:)
This quilt is a sequel to the
original and very popular
I could hardly wait
to get started on this one!
I chose to make my quilt
with this new fabric line called
Milk Cow Kitchen
I am a farm girl you know:)
I downloaded the
from
Fat Quarter Shop…
and sewed my
Jelly Roll Jam 2 together
while Kimberly held my hand
each and every step of the way
via YouTube and my iPad mini:)
Hi Kimberly!!!
Thanks so much…
it was fun having you right
beside me in my studio again:)
I quickly sewed my strips together
and made my wide blocks
and narrow blocks
just like Kimberly told me too:)
I layed out my rows on the
floor of my family room
which happens to be next to my table.
I discovered that if I added
one more wide and one more narrow block
onto the end of my three rows...
my Jelly Roll Jam 2
would fit the top
of my table perfectly!
So mine is just a bit longer
( 36 1/2" wide x 48" long)
I just used my leftover
jelly roll strips
to make the extra blocks and it
worked out perfectly because...
the backing and binding yardage
that Kimberly called for in the pattern
were just the right size:)
After I sewed my three rows together…
I quickly pin basted it
and did a little quick and easy
straight line machine quilting:)
Final step was to
add the binding of course!
Jelly Roll Jam 2
could easily be used
as a baby quilt
or a small lap quilt too.
It's such a great little pattern
and a fun way to
play with a jelly roll:)
I love the way it turned out
and the way it looks on my table.
A little peek inside my
cottage wall cupboard:)
So join in the fun and
go ahead and grab yourself
a cute jelly roll...
to download the pattern
and then
to have Kimberly visit
YOU
in your sewing room...
while you make your very own
Jelly Roll Jam 2!
Have a quilty kind of day!
