Those colors blended together with a little addition would make a beautiful Jelly Roll Quilt. The only thing I would do is cut the Jelly Roll strips into 10 inch strips, then sew back together with
with a solid color piece 4 inches long, each strp wound then be 57 inches long. Sew strips together randomly until you reach 60 inches long. Your piece would be 57 x 60 inches, a great size for a youth quilt or add a border of plain brown or a double b order with 52o of the colorsd for a larger Quilt.

I had decided that I would like to try the striptwist quilt on Quitlville. So got out the jelly roll. It is brown flowers, pink and white paisley, lime green brown paisley and a combination strip. OMG!!!! My sister has impecable taste most of the time-this time it was all in her mouth. I will post pics when it is done but just might qualify for the world's ugliest quilt.
