I am about to try using the jelly rolls for the first time and I think you just saved me a whole lot of frustration. Thanks for passing this tip on to us.

Jelly rolls are so fun to use. I even use a lot of NOrthcott and Moda as well as Hoffman and will use this for all of them. Not all have variations but when you are sewing a pattern, you don't want any surprises. I hate to be froggie and have to rippit, rippit,, it. LOL.

Thanks Debbie!! Glad someone thinks outside the box and shares the information to save the rest of us frustration!!!!!

I for one am willing to put up with minor variations if it helps others attain a decent standard of living :thumbup:

Brilliant! Your soooo clever!

Thanks for sharing this tip! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Sounds like this will save me alot of ripping.

Great help for strip piecing.

Thanks for the tip. :thumbup:

Alas and Alack! I thought this method would be very helpful , and probably will be when I get it. The fabric starts out straight, but about 6 inches into the strip, off it veers to the right. Any suggestions other than practice? Thanks

...makes sense....thanks....
