Start with at least 32 strips (2 1/2" wide) x WOF.

Sew 4 strips together, side by side. Iron all seams in the same direction. Cut the left side to where you have a clean edge to work off of. From that edge cut the strip set into 8" segments. Thie should yeild 5 segments. You will need two segments to make 1 block. Do this with all strip sets.

Pick out 2 segments. Fit them together, 1 on top of the other, with the middle seams lined up. This next step works well on a rotating cutting mat. Center the middle seam in the center of the rotating cutting mat, on the 6" hash mark. Line up your ruler on the 2" mark on the top and the 10" mark on the bottom. Trim the segments even. Rotate the board now so the bottom is at the top. Trim on the same 2" and 10" hash marks. This will square up the segments to 8" square. Rotate the cutting mat again so that you can cut the square into two trangles.

Take the two triagles and turn them so that the points are facing each other. Take the top from each and place it 1/4 turn to the empty space next to the triangle. This will make your block. I turn the block so that I am looking at a triangle. Take the top left section and match it to the bottom left section. Sew it from the center out. You will have bias edges so it is important not to pull the material. Repeat this process with the right side.

Iron these strip sets. Match up the sets at the center of each, you should be able to nest your seams in the middle. Keeping the seams nested, sew from one edge to the other. Again, trim your block to a square 10" block. This will get rid of the points that are sticking out at the corners. Sash between the blocks and border. Enjoy.

Oh that's beautiful!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for the tute. I have a bunch of jelly rolls that want to be made into something!
You did a great job :D:D

thank you, I have bookmarked it :thumbup: :thumbup:

This is a great idea and tute! Thanks so much...and I'll bookmark as well :-)

wow - that is gorgeous!! thank you so much for posting

Oh wow! I wish there were pictures of each step for this tute. I'm a visual person, and written directions just kinda get me dizzy and I have problems following them. But, if I had pictures............!

Thanks.

Holly

It is a process. The next time we make one we will do a step by step. May be a while. We are new to this.

Thank you for the tute :D:D:D

Very nice quilt

Love your quilt.Thanks for the tute & pics....can't have too many pics :-)

Thanks! Yesterday I bought a jelly roll from ACMoore (darn coupon made me just have to buy something!) Now I have a plan!

Thanks for the tute. One question though. Was this quilt made with just one jelly roll or more? I was given one jelly roll as a gift this Christmas and am not sure what I want to do with it yet.

Thanks for the pattern of the Rabbit's Jelly Roll Quilt. Your quilt is really pretty.

Thank you for the wonderful directions and pictures! This is on my "must try" list. Your quilt is great!

thanks. going to give this a try.

I am going out on a limb here and saying, yes, one jelly roll. There are usually 40 strips in a roll and she starts with at least 32. It looks like you will need extra for the sashing and ofcourse, the backing.

Love this tutorial. Thanks.

I wondered the same.....

I have never used a jelly roll - don't know where to start!
Can you help? :roll:

OMG..........thanks so much for this. I have been cutting up all my scraps (and believe me,I have so many I'm embarrassed) using Bonnie Hunter's Scrap Saver system and I have a huge Rubbermaid container with JUST 2 1/2 inch strips!!!! I am going to use this pattern.................thank you!!!

thanks!

This might help....Jelly Rolls,charm squares etc are pre cuts bought from quilt shops.Some ppl cut their own. Jelly rolls are strips 2 1/2" wide by width of fabric....mostly 42-44" long.They typically include 40 strips of fabric but can vary

That's really pretty. I like that. And some quilts don't need a different color for binding. You did good!

I love the way your quilt turned out, and love the colors! I do better with more pictures, too, but will definitely try this out with some scraps first.

Very Nice
thank You

Wow! Your instructions make a beautiful quilt. Putting it on my to do list.

I really like that and I have two jelly rolls I bought in Paducah just waiting for a pattern!!

So pretty....Great job.

Thanks for the tute.. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Love your quilt and love the use of the Jelly Roll. I have like 4 and wasn't sure how to use them.
Could you post a picture how you cut out the triangles? I cannot picture it in my mind.

thanks

... Pick out 2 segments. Fit them together, 1 on top of the other, with the middle seams lined up. ...

For this part, do you place the 2 segments both right side up with the seams running in the same direction?

and by "points of the triangles", do you mean the corners of the right angles?

yes. line up the middle seam on 6" hash and turn board so that you are looking at the square as a diamond. Cut the diamond in half. Turn the diamonds so that the points are facing each other.

Not the corners. the points in the middle. try it with paper first to see how it will go together. color the paper like it were strips. no wasting fabric.

I can't find the bookmark key any longer? Where did it go? Thanks

This is the nicest Jelly Roll patten I've seen yet. Thank you so much for sharing.

This is a great quilt. Now I have another project to try!

The bookmark is still showing for me.

Great explanation, I think I'll try this one too!

That is beautiful! Book marking this one!!

Did anyone notice the kit for this quilt in the latest Keepsake Quilting catalog, called "Sashay". what a difference color makes!

This is all very nice, but I think it would help if you included a few more pictures of the process.
