This is a tutorial and a story of how this quilt came about!!
AND I got an idea to use jelly roll strips.....so I started another project!
I put the zigzag strips at the 1st 5th and 9th positions....no particular reason, just balancing the look...
Then I cut down the center of every other strip starting with the first strip...
The above photo just shows the start of cutting one group....
My idea was to use these 4" blocks and mix them with strips and squares.
BUT I started putting them in an alternating pattern and before long there was a pleasing pattern!
AND I ended up with a 14½" square miniquilt top! Now to quilt it and bind it....
Smiles and hugs....Caryl
Cool quilt. Easy and looks very scrappy, great for a child or an adult.
ReplyDeleteThanks Wanda........very fun way to use up scraps!
DeleteOh! I like it, and I have accumulated a lot of jelly rolls, too. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThanks Bobbie...have fun!
DeleteI really like this pattern! I found your via Kathy's Slow Sunday Stitching link this past Sunday and followed your posts to here! Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThanks Miaismine......I made another later and blogged about it too. There are probably a lot of different ways to put the blocks after chopping them up like I did for this...and very easy to make!
