i stagger mine as shown in image. but i don't roll them. i fold up the "tails" so that the whole is about a foot long. i then take one more strip, fold in half and wrap around the bundle of strips ..fabric sticks to itseldf and this holds securely w/o pins. i sort my scraps etc by color, fabric type, print type etc. then i store them in underbed plastic bins. ..my bundles are not huge and easy to find what i want when i am working on new project. one of my dislikes of 'jelly rolls' is you really don't know what you have w/o opening the whole mess. hope this idea helps you.
