Our guild did the jellyroll race as part of our sew-in for National Quilt Day--our winner did the sewing of the top together in 44+ min--but she sews FAST! I was that person that finally made it across the finish line at a slow walk! I didn't figure out a way to not get the twist when you doubled it, etc. I made this as a charity lap quilt (big one with 44 strips) but frankly thought it was pretty plain despite the bright batiks. So when I quilted it I started with a "sun" in the middle and then had sun rays going out to all sides. Not bad, although like the back (black with white and yellow sun/rays) better than the front!
