A jelly roll is a collection of fabrics that are 2 1/2 inches wide by the width of fabric......There are many patterns out there that use jelly rolls for quilts, tote, etc......Typical jelly rolls that you purchase in a store contain 40 strips in them.

Do you have a pattern for the 20 strips. This will make a lap quilt?

I have to find an envelope big enough to send my sets out. I have 3 of them. Do you send by envelope or by a box?

Sending the strips in an envelope(s) will be better. Please remember to include a return envelope(s) with postage and your return mailing address.

OK, I am SO confused. At the beginning, it started out w/40 2 1/2 width of fabric strips all different fabrics. Then it changed to 20 fabrics in a set. On page 4 or 5, it's back to 40. What is it????? I can see 40 if we can do 2 of each strip but 40 different is quite a bit. Please let me know. I would like to participate but want to know what I'm doing. Thanks.

This swap is a swap of TWENTY strips of 2.5 inches x WOF fabric. Each set should contain TWENTY DIFFERENT strips. You can submit as many sets as you like.

I agree, it ended up being confusing. Wish we could have started a fresh thread :)
