    The bolts view is really nice ... though the Tonga Treats does give a pretty good view of what's in the package.


    Reminds me ... I won a TT JR in a Shop Hop last year, and have yet to do anything with it ... I'm so not used to precuts that I guess I forgot all about it!

    Love the bolt view!! I think that's a fantastic idea! I have looked at some jelly rolls where you get to at least see the little small squares of the fabric included, which is better than nothing. But I have also seen jelly rolls (and charms/stacks/fat quarters) online where even those little squares are not given (which means those are packs I won't buy because I want to see what I am getting before I order it).

    Love the bolts view - you are a genius.

    And I would buy that jelly roll too!

    While the stacks give the best idea, if the strips are destined to be cut into strips then that is an accurate view! I have never bought a jelly roll, not exactly sure what it is or how much fabric is crammed into it? But you really can't see a thing in those views.

    Absolutely love the bolt view and would buy JRs with those fabrics. When will you be offering them?

    I agree with this -- the bolts give a great view of the fabric, but image # 3 gives a good view too. I really like to buy the strips like #3 -- the edges are straight and protected from fraying (many of the open rolls with pinked edges have frayed tips and I feel I would need to trim them and that is not very satisfactory).
