This one is a beginners project that only requires sewing in straight lines. Both this one and my Windmills at Night patterns were made specifically for beginners.

How jellyrolls for a king size? I wanted to use one whole one then maybe cuit the 2nd in half lengthwise and use the halves on either side of the wholel with maybe a solid piece between each of the halves and the whole. Any one seen anything like this idea?

suzy6281

Mar 07, 2013

Flag as inappropriate

Not sure if I can envision what you are wanting to make. But I can tell you that with the original pattern, for a King size measuring 72" x 84", you would need 5-1/2 jelly rolls. Hope that helps. Suzy

it cuts and sews up really fast. Instant gratification It's very pleasing to look a. So you can finish fast and be very prod of your self. Great for a scrap quilt sheri ellsworth show low, Az

Jelly roll fabric is pre-cut strips of fabric- usually a collection of coordinating colors. Easy to use as the colors have already been matched and the fabric already cut. All you have to do is sew!

My squares are not really square. They have a little diamond shape to them. I have checked my seams and they are correct. Just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

suzy6281

Feb 05, 2012

Some have suggested that it is easier with a template. Try cutting a 5 1/2" template out of cardboard. Line the top point with the top seam and the two other points with the bottom seam.
