Wounded Warrior Quilts
 
3 Attachment(s)
At our recent quilt retreat, our group held jelly roll races!
We made many tops to make lap robes for WW.
Instead of using a full 40+ strip jelly roll, we made 21 strip rolls to get the side we needed.

(each picture set is front & back of the quilt)

We used my new GO! Cutter to make the strips. There were left over scraps from straightening and cutting.
I used these "scraps" to make a string quilt.

Also pictured is a crumb quilt I've made from various scraps - I could look at it for hours and find different things. I guess it's like an adult "I Spy" quilt! :)

Much of the fabric used for the Jelly Roll Races was donated to our quilting group by a dear lady that belongs to my DMIL's quilting group in Indiana.
