Love those Jelly Rolls!
I’m in love with Jelly Rolls. There’s just something so dang sweet about them! Yesterday I went to the Moda web site and ta da! My favorite Jelly Rolls appeared! I was so surprised to see that Lily & Will were having coffee hot chocolate with Moda!
If you like to play with Jelly Rolls go to the Moda website for the new Jelly Roll Dream Challenge! Here’s your chance to design a Jelly Roll quilt and win big! Enter the contest and you might win a Janome sewing machine not to mention a lot of fame. It’s “sew” easy and so much fun! Remember you can download the fabric swatches for all the current lines on the Moda website then design away using graph paper or Electric Quilt.
I’m taking a little survey: Are you a “waste not, want not kind of quilter” or is “time well spent” more important to you? I have to admit I’m on the side of “time”. I’m the one who loves to use pre-cut cream and white jelly rolls! Forget cutting my own strips it’s just not for me. I want to open the package and start sewing. Which one are you? Tell me in the comments and you could win a cream jelly roll along with a Lily & Will Jelly Roll! I’ll tell you the winners on my next blog post! (There is no wrong or right answer so be honest.)
Back soon!

I can be either… I love my Moda pre-cuts and use them all the time… It’s great to have a head start on the cutting just so I can start sewing straight away… It’s fun designing patterns using the sweet cuts so I’m going to visit the Moda site to check out the challenge…
However, I can also sit and stitch intricate blocks…

I’ll be very honest with you, Anne. I won’t buy a Moda Jelly Roll anymore. The strips are sometimes wonky…you know, a BAD cut where you get just a bit of a “V” shape. My friends have had the same experience. Honestly, for the PRICE Moda charges AND the fact that they are laser cut, this should not be happening. Shame on Moda.

I am definitely a pre-cut user. Love jelly rolls,charm paks, etc and just bought my first candy bar from moda. Thought about asking for an accuquilt GO for Christmas but then think how many jelly rolls, turnovers etc I can buy for $500.00.
Love your designs and your blog.
