A jelly roll is 2 1/2" wide strips by the width of the fabric (WOF). A honey bun is 1 1/2" wide by WOF.
A honey bun costs $23 and jelly rolls are $35 at Fat Quarter Shop. You can get them for less like on eBay ranging from $25 to $30 or so for a jellly roll on But It Now. Can bid on them for less. I saw honey buns from $12 to $22.
I look at a bunch of places online all the time and sometimes you can find really good deals. Fat Quarter Shop has good sales sometimes like a Harmony JR for $21, a Sultry HB for $16, etc.

You're welcome. It is perfect for a log cabin but I have also made one with a jelly roll. It IS so much quicker!! Especially using this method, no cutting at all other than cutting each block off the strip.

Your quilt is so pretty- as is your room! Is your whole house decorated that nice? I love it!
Also, I have seen jelly rolls and the like for pretty cheap on Etsy. I paid $15 for a Moda one once.

Thank you. :-)
Several of the rooms in the house are done but not all. I did that room after my daughter moved out. I got the paint for the living room, hallway and stairway but when I put it on the wall it was very yellow. It was supposed to be beige. Decided to use it in that room and what goes with yellow? Black and White. I did the panel moulding myself on all the walls and over a month or two kept my eye out for black and white accessories. Got the chair for $50 and painted it white and re-covered the seat. I made the headboard from scraps of wood and some plywood. Got the tables for $30, the lamps were $10, the artwork is posters and I had gold frames that I painted matte black. The drapes were $18 at Walmart.
This is the family room and living room. The only other room done upstairs really is my bedroom and it's just a restful beige and white with touches of blue and brown.
