Default On a roll......Jelly Roll, that is

I went to a quilt retreat this past weekend with guild friends and made this lap quilt, 56" x 67", for my aunt who is starting chemo. I used a pattern called Garden Trellis from Jelly Roll Quilts by Pam and Nicky Lintott. It went together perfectly, even though it is considered a tube quilt and all the blocks had bias edges. I just starched the pieced strips heavily before cutting. I also used their tip of using a square ruler and marking a line with painters tape across from the 6 1/2" line on one side to the same mark on the opposite side, making my own 90 degree triangle template. The fabric is from Nancy Halvorsen's line called, Forever Spring, by Benartex. I hope she likes it.[ATTACH=CONFIG]414849[/ATTACH]
