Rag quilt made from jelly roll
Here is a question for all who have made a rag quilt from a jelly roll. Do you make your seams 1/2 inch? I planned to do that but wanted to confirm with others that it will still look okay and my finished strip will not be too narrow. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experience! I am still very new at this!

In order for it to rag, you would want half inch seams. Here's a tutorial:

I would think a jelly roll us not your best choice for ragging, but that's my opinion. Better with larger pieces..
Edit--- I just checked out above site and I guess I stand corrected!
Go for it and show n tell!

I agree you will loose almost half of the jelly roll, dont think it would be worth it in the long run design wise
