Jelly Roll Race Quilts

In the past week a couple people have mentioned my blog to me, which reminded me that I do have a couple of faithful readers - thank you to them!

I know it seems that all I make are cakes, however the last few months I've busy making quilts as well! I have recently discovered Jelly Roll Race quilts. They are the quickest, cutest blankets around. Jenny from Missouri Star Quilt Company has a great tutorial on You Tube.

The this was my very first jelly roll race quilt. It was kind of a spur of the moment purchase. I was in our local quilt shop, with my kids, when I saw the jelly rolls and they happened to be 20% off. I had been wanting to make one for a while and so right then and there I decided to pick one out, go home and sew it up. I was very excited!


I actually kept this blanket for myself and I love it!! I like to put borders on them. It just finishes them off and makes them a little bit bigger.


This quilt got all my kids excited about jelly roll race quilts - honesty I think they just like the name!

My daughter wanted to make one, so we went to the fabric store and she picked out the one with the most pink.


We are using hers for a picnic blanket.


I have a couple more jelly rolls, and when I get them sewn into quilts I'll show you!
