    It is amazing I love h rail fence. I am surprised at the colours . When I have a jelly roll only have 2 stripes of each pattern/colour and could not make this.
    If you donot like it when it is finished will look great in my kitchen

    Don't abandon it, just fly with it, like cut the 8 1/2 " squares at a diagonal and fracture them and resew together . If you are an abstract type of artist , you could get funky with them. Maybe even create something new out of a classic rail fence block. I do this sometimes when I'm not excited about a look.

    I really like what you've done; not too bright at all.

    I think your lay out looks great! I'm inspired! Is that one jelly roll? How big is the top? Thanks

    Yes, it is one jelly roll. I have never bought one before, so I don't know if they come in more than one size. I got it at Tuesday Morning, for a pretty good price. I still have 16 pieces left. I haven't sewn these together yet, but right now it is 50x60.

    Thanks everyone, for your encouraging words. I had started off to make the 3 dudes jelly roll that Missouri Star Quilt has a video on, and I could still do that, but I think this works better for me. I'm not sure why. I think I have fabric that I will like better in the 3 dudes jelly roll.
