I would like to make a jelly roll race quilt top. But I want to make a queen sized quilt for my bed. I will cut my own strips from my stash. I just watched this video telling how to enlarge the quilt. In the tutorial she says you can widen it, but not lengthen it. I was confused on how she said to sew strips on after you have the width you want.
She figured to use 59 strips to get the with and another 18 later to use for extra length.
Why can't a person use 77 strips and make it the length you want? What am I missing from this tute?
Sorry, I forgot to include the link for the tute.
