For one thing, it wouldn't have two of anything. It would be 40 strips. They would all be wonderful pieces of fabric. Fabric I couldn't live without. It would be batik or regular cotton. If batik, it would have to be different, no so blendable. If cotton, I'd want bright and cheerful and prints.

The "perfect jellyroll" would be a "perfect" 2 1/2". 40 count, one of each color or print.

This sounds great to me, too! :0

I think I have bought only one jelly roll -- there are so many issues with them. The perfect jellyroll in my book would be a perfect 2.5" cut -- and they must be cut straight with no pinking and no wobbles in the strips. I prefer 40 in a package and would prefer unique cuts. I would prefer an assortment of strips in one color way with no two alike. I need to be able to see the pattern and color of each strip (don't like them rolled up).
