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!

    Ooooh, I love all the pre-cuts and the yardage. I’m a definite fabri-holic! I just have to have it, no matter what form it comes in.

    But I must admit I have trouble opening and decimating those beautiful jelly rolls and charm packs and turnovers and layer cakes. They’re delicious just as they are. :D

    I love the jelly rolls and have purchased some. To be perfectly frank I have always wanted to do the math and find out how much more per yard I am paying to purchase fabric in this manner. I do agree and also love to see them sitting on the shelf all dressed up and tempting me to play. When I undress a jelly roll I keep the Moda twill tape and hang it up with the little paper tag as a reminder of what used to be in that wrapping. Just a really silly thing I started doing for no reason at all. But then aren’t quilt studios (ok, sewing room) supposed to be silly and non sensical? I think so!
