Jelly Roll Chickens etc.
Who doesn’t love a jelly roll? The whole process of cutting the fabric and rolling it amazes me, and when I have one in my hands, I love the way it looks. If you love Jelly Rolls too you’re going to love the new Moda All-Stars book! Moda All-Stars On Roll ships tomorrow, March 15th. And once again the royalties from another Moda All-Stars book go to a charity. All the royalties from On A Roll are donated to School on Wheels (SchoolOnWheels.org).
There’s everything in this book from my Jelly Roll chickens, Stacy Lest Hsu’s butterflies, to Barb & Mary’s One Roll Wonder and Sweetwater’s Square Dance. There are 14 quilts in total!
And you might find out some things you didn’t know about each designer. For example, Betsy Chutchian foolishly sold her 1969 yellow Ford Mustang while several states away, Joanna Figueroa was dreaming of owning one! As for me, I’m dreaming of a new Mercedes GLE SUV in a warm taupe color. And Sherri McConnell would like a BMW 4 Series (I’d take one too if I can’t have the Mercedes). Lisa Bongean wants a vintage white Cadillac convertible. Who knew all these things?
Here’s the fun part! I’m giving away two of these books on Saturday, March 16th. You could win one if you leave me a comment telling me why you love Jelly Rolls.
And if you happen to make my Jelly Roll chicken quilt, “Rule the Roost,” you’ll discover the answer to that timeless question “which came first the chicken or the egg?”. These chicks are some pretty smart girls!
Back soon!

I must be honest I have only used Jelly rolls once. I just started a quilt which would have been perfect with the use of jellyrolls but it was a stash buster project. The cutting would have been much easier and less time consuming for sure. I now have jelly rolls implanted in my head for future projects. The chicken quilt is something that I hope to do in the near future. I hope to get my collection of roosters started again. I moved cross country and had to get rid of my 3 ft tall resin rooster, regretted it ever since.

I love jelly rolls, because they are so versatile. I just took a class on EQ8 from Kari Shell and we learned many new ways of using jelly rolls. I am eager to try one. Also, that early bird fabric from your Redwork line is absolutely fabulous. Well, the other sneak peaks looked fantastic as well…but those birds!!!!!
