Now I have my scrap quilt idea! Thanks! This quilt looks like super fun to make...however I am still not quite understanding it all together. I am determined to figure this out though. I like it. It would make a perfect quilt to take to the beach. Brenda You can still go off track, but not as often - and slower cutting really helps, too. Brenda |
This has been pretty entertaining reading. LOL. Omak, I love all of your input. You are always so helpful. Thanks!
I too would like to use this method for a queen sized quilt. I have a Christmas jelly roll that I've wanted to get this exact look from. Actually, I have two jelly rolls, but looking at all the math, I think I'll stick to using just one. HA! However, in order to get it to the larger size, I'll add 3 borders - a plain one, a pieced one, and another plain one. I have lots of FQ's in the same fabrics as the jelly rolls and I'll use them to create the pieced border. So the jelly roll part will make up the center of the quilt, with the borders taking it up to the right size. |

Vertically? |
I've had so much yard work lately, I haven't been able to get back to my SFJRQ for several days. Everything is just about planted, trees straightened, rock will be shovelled in place today - then back to the sewing machine! Yeah - can't wait to Git R Done!

Of course, last night, we welcomed a new heifer to our herd, so maybe I have other work to accomplish! LOL <wave> |
