    Default 2 1/2" Strip Pattern Needed

    I picked up a pack of 2 1/2" strips at the guild meeting this month (my first meeting), they are doing simple strip donation quilt tops, I think by sewing the strips together, and then cutting them, and joining them kinda off centered to give a scrappy look. (I didn't ask how to do it, it looked simple). I searched tutes but cannot find one for something as simple as this. I am over thinking this, I am not good without a pattern. But can anyone help me? Thanks.

    This is a fun way to use those 2 1/2" strips.
    Bet you could find more on Missouri Star's site OR by googling "2 1/2" strips, quilting".

    Have fun making the quilt.

    If it is a jellyroll, you sew the strips together, end to end, oh, you cut off the first 18" of one piece, then sew the rest of them together end to end, fold in half, then sew together end to end, cut in half - repeat until you have your quilt. Go to u-tube and type in jellyroll quilt race, it will give you complete instructions.

    Thank you all, the pattern is the jelly roll quilt race, and I will be starting it after lunch. Too wet and windy to spray baste my Thanksgiving runners outside, so gee I have to stay inside and sew.
