This is my first attempt at a simple jelly roll quilt- however, it's not so simple. Lessons learned so far- how to sew strips together on a slant and that a jelly roll does not equal a jelly roll. The roll I purchased ended up having 20 strips so needless to say I either have to
1. Add border(s) on what I have made so far . I was thinking one in turquoise and the other in sea glass green or
2. Buy another 20 strip jelly roll and make another quilt and sew halves together.
Thoughts?

Wow, despite the problems it still is pretty. Love the colors in this. Reminds me of the Caribbean. Edited to add, I would probably buy another jelly roll and sew the two together for a decent size quilt.

Depends on how much bigger you want it. If you want it double the size, getting a second jelly roll would probably be the easiest way to enlarge it.

I would go with option 2 and get another roll. I would put the strips in a different sequence from the first section. And yes, a jelly roll is basically a roll of 2.5" strips. The number can vary from a low of about 20 to a high of 44 or so.
