    This has been months in the making. This is the super fast jelly roll but it took a while to find the border and backing fabric. It came from 5 different parts of US. Thank you to everyone that helped me find the fabric. Also while I was waiting for it all to come in I started on other projects but finally put those to the side and finished this one. I quilted it on my tiny 6in arm machine so there isn't any fancy quilting. BTW I made matching pillow cases and curtains. I am not happy with the curtains so no pic's.
    Thank you for looking.

    Editing to say: I used wool for the batting that I bought at 2 different thrift shops costing me a total of $3.50.

    It is on a queen mattress.

    Here is the quilting I did, nothing compared to a lot of you or I should say most of you all!!

    Love your new look and the quilt too. I have not gotten excited with the strip quilts, but Your's really nice. Love your color choices. I may have to rethink the "jelly roll".:)
