The bolts view is really nice ... though the Tonga Treats does give a pretty good view of what's in the package.


Reminds me ... I won a TT JR in a Shop Hop last year, and have yet to do anything with it ... I'm so not used to precuts that I guess I forgot all about it!

Outstanding Idea !!! love .. love .. the bolts to preview!!! This idea is right up there with sliced bread!!!
Thats a fabulous "loaf" you have going!

Love the bolt view!! I think that's a fantastic idea! I have looked at some jelly rolls where you get to at least see the little small squares of the fabric included, which is better than nothing. But I have also seen jelly rolls (and charms/stacks/fat quarters) online where even those little squares are not given (which means those are packs I won't buy because I want to see what I am getting before I order it).

Love the bolts view - you are a genius.

And I would buy that jelly roll too!

While the stacks give the best idea, if the strips are destined to be cut into strips then that is an accurate view! I have never bought a jelly roll, not exactly sure what it is or how much fabric is crammed into it? But you really can't see a thing in those views.

Absolutely love the bolt view and would buy JRs with those fabrics. When will you be offering them?

Love the view with the stack of bolts!! What a great idea! And I agree with an earlier comment, I would love to have a jelly roll out of that stack!!! BEAUTIFUL!!!

I agree with this -- the bolts give a great view of the fabric, but image # 3 gives a good view too. I really like to buy the strips like #3 -- the edges are straight and protected from fraying (many of the open rolls with pinked edges have frayed tips and I feel I would need to trim them and that is not very satisfactory).
