It only takes one jelly roll. Make sure you cut off 18" on the first strip. If you don't all your seams will line up. This is a fun quilt to make. Our quild is currrently making them in red, white and blue fabrics for quilts of valor.

Well, you've gotten a 1 a 2 a 3 and a 4. One will definately not be enough (unless you are just doing the very middle area with the strips and then adding in very wide borders), 2 will be pushing it, 3 CAN get you there, but 4 will definately be plenty. thats just my 2 cents :-), I've made a few myself and depending on what you do with borders will also be a factor in how many rolls you need.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Do you think that working with the number of strips in 3-4 rolls will be waaaay too cumbersome. Would I use the same "formula" as for one jelly roll and stop when I have the right width? Thanks again ladies and gents.
