I received a couple of jelly rolls as part of a swap a whole ago and didn't use them until recently. I sewed part of the strips from one roll together and made a really cute purse with a coordinated bottom and lining, then had enough of that left for another purse with a different style. I still have a bit of that left, plus another roll of different color way which I will also make into totes and bags. A little goes a long way. The seams were pinked, and using them this way, it didn't matter if they were a bit off. Still, I wouldn't have purchased them, preferring to cut my own. I didn't think the fabrics in those rolls were really my taste, but made up in the bags, I LOVE them!!
