Everyone will be asked to have the strips sewn together in one long strip for the race and can cut their strips up to 3" if cutting their own or come early to sew the strips together. Most members that come to our guild workshops will not care about buying a jelly roll and more then likely bring extra for those that need one. Our guild keeps a big bin full of extra fabric for anyone to use that needs fabric for the workshops or programs. Someone is always replenishing the bin. I love my guild members generosity. I don't think I'll time it, just say GO! The quilts will be for the sewers use.
