WHAT IS A JELLY ROLL ?
A Jelly Roll is made up of pre-cut, 2 1/2" strips of fabric. There can be any amount of fabric in a roll, but we usually have 2.05 mtrs of fabric in ours. The rolls can have a special theme, such as Florals, Country, Indigo, Batiks, Abstract or Checks amongst others. Sometimes the rolls are made up of just one colour..... from the very lightest to the darkest shade. A very , very stunning quilt right there !
SO,... WHAT CAN I MAKE FROM A JELLY ROLL ?
Ah ....a lot , in fact ! Use your left over fabrics to combine with a Jelly Roll and bust that stash !! Keep the fabrics to a similar theme and you can't go wrong. Beautiful, scrappy quilts will emerge from your blends. Make placemats if you have only a few strips. How about bags for carrying wine to a Christmas do ? Or a tablecloth for a Halloween Party ? Lap quilts are great giveaway's and a Quillow is fun to give and receive!! The ideas are endless and many many patterns can be used for dynamic quilts. We are giving away a FREE pattern sheet with every Jelly Roll, just to get you started. Come join our Block Swap and get loads of ideas !! Call shop for details or watch this spot for more about "THE SWAP".
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I START MAKING QUILTED ITEMS FROM JELLY ROLLS ?
You become a member of THE STRIP CLUB ! Tell the world.... I AM A STRIPPER!!
ANY OTHER BENEFITS ?

You also get a BEAUTIFUL quilt or other project and stop feeling GUILTY about not using "my huge pile of fabrics !"
