Oh my..it is so pretty...love the colors you used. Now, would you do another one as you mentioned it was slow going?

Great job...it’s on my list of things to try. I love how colorful your jelly rug made up.

Great rug. Yes, I want to give it a try. I think one would look great in front of the bathroom vanity.

Yes, I would do another one. I think to buy the batting pre-cut on a roll would be a tremendous time saver, but it makes the project very expensive! After all, its just a rug!

I have lots of batting scraps, so I think over the winter I will just cut and piece the batting (with batting tape) a few at a time when I am between projects. I have lots of yardage and a few leftover precut jellyroll strips, and choosing and arranging the fabric strips is so fun (for me anyway). The actual sewing of the rug goes pretty quick!

You need (or maybe 'should') buy the pattern. All the videos will say 'buy the pattern'! I liked the one by RJ designs (Erica Arndt) best, but the more you watch, the more tips you pick up!
