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 LOVE, LOVE, LOVE jelly rolls, charm packs and the like… but they just seem TOO pretty to use! ;-) I always end up pulling fat quarters or yardage from my stash, and put off using those gorgeous rolls and packs for some other future project– always waiting for *just the PERFECT thing*. I think I just really like looking at all those lucious fabrics so carefully coordinated and packaged– they’re a masterpiece on their own! (by the way, I also have a thing about hating to use that last little scrap of a favorite fabric– even though it may be going into a beautiful quilt, I still just hate to see the end of it.)

I love the time-saving part, but those pre-cuts are also just so super cute! I would love to try the creamy jelly roll – am really loving solids, even though I went through a phase where I wouldn’t even consider using them in my projects.

I love to use pre-cuts for the variety they offer. I prefer to cut my own strip sets with my own choice of fabrics. Love your color choices for the new fabric line!
