My Sister sent me a bunch of fat quarters and a jelly roll in a suprize package. Now she doesn't sew at all and thinks i can do most anything with a machine. Any way, i opened said package-most of it is colors that i will use-navy purple black cream. And then i got to the jelly roll lol. I had decided that I would like to try the striptwist quilt on Quitlville. So got out the jelly roll. It is brown flowers, pink and white paisley, lime green brown paisley and a combination strip. OMG!!!! My sister has impecable taste most of the time-this time it was all in her mouth. I will post pics when it is done but just might qualify for the world's ugliest quilt.

it was nice of her to think of you even tho she missed the boat on some of the colors. maybe they will look better then you think. :D

Sounds like a jelly roll I bought with those colors. At the store I thought the colors & fabric looked good. Now that I have opened it up...not too sure...& don't what I'm going to do with it.

It may turn out to be beautiful, you never know sometimes.:)

It might not be the colors you would chose, but it might look great when it is done. One of the things I like about going to quilt retreats where there are 50 plus women, is to see the variety of quilt projects and color combinations being used. I have seen some pretty stunning quilts that weren't made with colors that I would picked out.

Sounds like I had and I made the super fast jelly roll quilt and loved it.
