I actually like it a lot the way it is. I know that no matter how I put the strips together I always get same colors together bt I really do like the look of yours.

I really love the outcome. If I could just be sure mine would turn out like that........

It is a great quilt! froggyintexas |
Mine looks very similar to yours; you can see it here, about halfway down the page:
http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-128274-6.htm#3422703 My jelly roll only had, if I remember correctly, 6 different fabrics. I think that is what creates the blocky-looking design. It seems to me that the people who are using Moda jelly rolls, which have a lot more variety, come up with something completely different. Not better, just different!! I'm going to add on some borders to mine to try and make it twin-sized. |
It is very pretty. I have never made one before but love how your turned out.

Mine sort of did the same thing. I had two dark blues right smack dab together in the center of the quilt and it just bugged me to pieces so I got out the old worn out seam ripper, (my BFF), and ripped 'er apart and sewed that part on the other end. Then I noticed two more places where the fabrics seemed to bunch together and I thought I could be doing this until next week!! I left it alone, I like it the way it is, I'll put Minkee on the back and git er done!
