    Jenny suggests doing small projects with this method. Just choose the size you want to make, crib looks to be the best size. I would not use fleese for the backing, its polyester and will shrink differently than your cottons.
    This is not made with a jellyroll, she cut different width strips for this project.
    I have done this quilt as you go but made blocks/rows, and quilted as I went for each row,
    and came back later and stitched between the rows. A great idea for a quick gift or charity quilts.

It's wrinkled because it sat on the shelf a couple of years before binding. the wash will take them out.

    I did this one as well for the DGS in darker blues/browns. He loved it and I loved that it was finished in 1 weekend. It is a very easy quick quilt. Love your colors!
