Quilt Along
For the third week, the Jelly Roll precut, quilty blogger Jen of Heritage Threads made the Jelly Roll Twist Quilt using the Road Trip 2.5″ Strips by Alison Glass for Andover Fabrics.
She says, “Jelly Rolls are so easy and fun to use. When choosing a project for a jelly roll, consider if the pattern would work best with a fabric line that has more prints, or if it will work better with a fabric line that has a lot of repeats in the jelly roll. ” Great job Jen!
