Thread: Jelly rolls

I subscribe to Liz Katsuro's site. She sells jelly rolls. She has asked her customers to send her pictures of quilts they made using the jelly rolls. So far she has 3 files of pictures. Here's her note linking to the third file, with another to come. Lots of good ideas for using jelly rolls.

"Just a quick note - the 3rd installment of our customer submitted

I subscribe to Liz Katsuro's also. Her jelly rolls only have 20 in them. I am very new to quilting, I am making a Christmas table runner. I want to make a quilt. I like the quilts from the link you put above. To make a full size quilt, how many of her jelly rolls should I buy? Everyone is talking about fat quarters, how many of those would make a full size quilt? How many of each color pattern? I hope I'm not being a pain in the neck.
HAPPY QUILTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great pictures,BUT the quilt the little lady is holding looks like the pieces are MUCH wider than a standard jelly roll width.

They are bigger look like at least charm squared

If you enlarge the little ladys quilt the jelly roll of same color were sewn together to make a 4 inch square.

I don't know as I have never made a quilt with them. However, each strip is 2.5" wide and approx 40+" long so, depending on the design you choose and the measurements of your quilt, you should be able to make a pretty good approximation of how many you need.

I use her jelly rolls and have made several quits with them. I find using just one 20 strip set will make a nice size baby quilt using the "jelly roll race" way of putting it together. Appliques on this after it is put together is really nice also.

I was not aware of her or her fabrics but I was very impressed. I will definitely be looking at her site.
Thank you for sharing this.
