Thank you for this tutorial! I am taking beginning sewing/quilting classes this summer and before they start, I have been getting ansy. So, I picked up a jelly roll that my local quilt store made up and had on sale for $15. I have not yet put the borders on since I want to take it to my quilt shop for their suggestions for border fabric.
My MIL saw me working on this and she fell in love with it. She has some issues with memory, so she kept forgetting that she'd seen it and tell me again how pretty it was! lol It was great. I think she complimented it over 15 times. So, it's obviously meant to be her birthday present. :) (She particularly liked the kittens peeking strips. I need to find more of that!)

The only boo boo I think I made was that I wasn't as careful as I should have been, so I may have confused which sides to join a time or two, but I still think it looks nice.

Thanks again for this idea!
