    These are lovely charity quilts and will be treasured by those receiving them. What a great way to use some jelly rolls --- simple, but very effective.

    You used my favorite charity quilt pattern! It's called the Potato Chip Quilt because, as you can clearly see, you can't make just one! The center square can be any size you like. I usually go 8.5 or 10" on mine but the 6.5" works best with the smaller jelly rolls. Also, for a different (but easy) look, you can whack each block into equal quarters and rotate two opposite corner blocks 180 degrees, sew back together and it turns into a Crazy Eight block that looks very sophisticated but is EZ peasy!

    They are all very nice, but I especially like the blue one. Thanks for another great idea.

    Didn't know this pattern had a name LOL but should have known there is nothing new in the quilting world! Gotta try your Crazy Eight on the last jelly roll I have, sounds fun.

    They are all my favorite but the red was is so sophisticated looking. I love that you pieced the borders on the diagonal.
    Beautiful job!
