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!

Love all the pastries…honey buns, jelly rolls, layer cakes. But, to save money, I usually buy the yardage and cut it myself. Cutting is definitely not my favorite part of quilting though, and if I could afford it, I’d buy the precuts. Besides, they are so pretty!!

I hate cutting my fabric! I love opening up a jelly roll and diving into a project!!!!

Actually, I’m both. It depends on the day, the project, and what else is going on in my life! I, too, love to get to the sewing part right away, so pre-cuts are nice! but I also love needle-turn applique, so often the pre-cuts don’t work for that. Those luscious strips, though, would make great sashing! Or, I’m certain I could find something else fun to do with them :-) !!
