This has been pretty entertaining reading. LOL. Omak, I love all of your input. You are always so helpful. Thanks!
I too would like to use this method for a queen sized quilt. I have a Christmas jelly roll that I've wanted to get this exact look from. Actually, I have two jelly rolls, but looking at all the math, I think I'll stick to using just one. HA! However, in order to get it to the larger size, I'll add 3 borders - a plain one, a pieced one, and another plain one. I have lots of FQ's in the same fabrics as the jelly rolls and I'll use them to create the pieced border. So the jelly roll part will make up the center of the quilt, with the borders taking it up to the right size.
