Chooky found this wonderful little”Jelly Roll Race” on Tracee’s blog…. check it out, all the instructions are there…

So of course we had to do it…..it was to take 35 mins to do the whole thing…but not sure how that was done…but we did OK…I think I had mine made in about two hours that was from start to finish….

happy Thursday

Take Care Peg….

Dreams come true; without that possibility, nature would not incite us to have them.

    Oh, how cool.... I'm getting ready to do a Jelly Roll 1600 this weekend!

    In the video, the winner of the Jelly Roll races finished in 35 mins... it took the rest longer. Also they had sewed the fabric strips together before the races started...

    I'm figuring it's going to take me about 2 hrs too...

    Looks good Peg. I saw that race on someone's blog. They all looked so good. Perhaps that's what I could do with my recent jelly roll win!

    Looks lovely! Aren't they just so much fun to make. I have made two recently and started another . For the record I found out the 35minutes to finish refers to the sewing AFTER all the strips have been joined. I spent most of the time on joining the strips. After that it went quick!

    What a great pattern, so simple and quick, but very effective too. I love this idea for the back of a quilt as well.
