Strip quilts. Bonnie Hunt has lots of tutorials in regards to strip quilts. You can also go to Jenny Doan at MISSOURI STAR QUILT COMPANY. She has lots of tutorials for JELLY ROLLS.

Here is my latest one. Used the strips from Missouri Quilt and handquilted it. The pattern was in the new Quilting Quickly magazine. Saw the pattern and went to my stash!!!

I love jelly rolls. As someone mentioned, lots of variety and reduces your cutting time. Here is one of my favorites:

Oh, and someone posted this week a beautiful Summer In The Park that would work well with jelly rolls.

Who can resist buying a fabulous jelly roll. I love them in baskets sitting in my sewing room. Great decor even if you don't use them.

Bella that's my problem! I buy them but they are so pretty in the rolls that I don't use them! BTW another variation on the strip quilt that I saw was to piece the strips into 4 rectangles (2 small, two large) and add two wide strips of a solid color and an appliqued bow and it will look like a gift wrapped package. My next project is a baby quilt using that idea....
