Made me laugh...
QUOTE=NanaCindyLou;6758278]I ordered several jelly rolls at a "too good to be true" price - and boy was I right! All were poorly cut, not true to size, mostly horrible fabric. Lesson learned! Today I am using this "bargain" to make a truly scrappy quilt. Practicing my accurate 1/4 inch seams and stitch in the ditch and free motion quilting. THIS quilt will probably last forever. I've already named it "What was she thinking?". If the quilt police don't come after me for this, they are never coming at all.... LOL...[/QUOTE]

Neither of us will be bothered by the experience a second time.

You will have to show us "what was she thinking" when you are done .. This is the reason I stopped buying jelly rolls and make my own
