Beautiful, make all your quilts to suit you and they will be just right.
Welcome from outside St. Louis. |
I used a two jelly rolls from Walmart also. Each had 24 strips. I think that's the problem. Use no more than 40 or 42 and it runs sideways, otherwise the longer initial strip causes the strips to run up and down. I used mine just the way it worked best and added a couple of borders and some pinwheel blocks I had laying around and it looks fine. Just use it like it is. We won't tell the quilt police!

NO NO NO, don't rip...even the sides, put a couple borders on it and it will be just fine. I've made several, even a small one for a baby, and they all look different...You can either do the piecing like you did, or you can angle the piecing, either way if fine. I like the different looks you get from different rolls..

Very pretty! Leave it as is! A border or two will make a great finish!!
|
Having seen so many horizontal stripes I am pleased to see your vertical stripes. In one of Kaffe Fassett's book he has designed a vertical striped one.
|
I made a jellyroll quilt like yours but I cut 18 inches off the first strip and as you join them all strip lengths are different, I then made my binding by sewing 4 inch strips together from the different color strips to make the binding and this really added appeal. I think your quilt looks great as is.
|
Very pretty, I would just add borders if you want it bigger.
|
I don't see a darn thing wrong with it... It is your, you can run the strips anyway you want... Love the little toes sticking out.
|
It looks great, it's the beauty of the jelly roll, colors that match and we all know that horiztional stripes make you look thinner LOL
|
I love the fabric. Looks great and makes a good size throw.
