I have a batik roll (3.5 yds) of 2 1/2" strips. Any ideas what pattern I should use to make a quilt?

I have almost the exact same roll! I was planning on doing the super fast jelly roll quilt I found in the tutorial section, but I'm sure others will have more interesting ideas, lol!

I have the same one also. Great question and I can't wait to hear what everybody suggests.

Colors are stunning!!! How about a solid middle square and your strips around it???

That's what I am thinking! Got the jelly roll just waiting to be made!

I just bought the Jelly Roll Quilts book. Haven't picked my pattern yet. Have a batik jelly roll waiting for me to pick.

On the Missouri Quilt Company site under tutorials, look for Summer in the Park. I just made it with strips and I love how it turned out. www.missouriquiltco.com

The super fast jelly roll is what I was thinking. I have made 2 of them and I love how they come out. 1 of mine is in batik's that I am turning into a king size quilt for my queen size bed.
BTW I love the jelly roll you have those are some nice colors.
There have been some that have made bargello's using the jelly roll.
What ever you decide I hope it is fun to do.

that's what I'm doing with mine

i did something on that order with my old batiks. center sq with strips around that i bought.

I made the one I had into a bargello. It's one of my favorite quilts.
