Jelly Roll Race-Please Help
Well, I researched the Jelly Roll Race yesterday, and made one out of a Moda Jelly Roll called, Rural Jardin. It was easy and loads of fun to make. I like the colors, kind of muted reds, creams, and blues. I starched and pressed it this morning, and I don't like it. It is very dull. I need to do something to perk it up like appliqué or what??. What color would add a pop? I want it to look nice because it is for a friend who has cancer. She is starting chemo treatments and is cold all the time. She has two blue recliners in her room just the color of the blue in the quilt. Please help.

Here are some pictures I saved. http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...e-t225304.html I like the idea of combining the jelly roll race with appliqué. I'm trying to think what would go with your colors, but you probably know what your friend would like, which is more to the point.

I love adding applique to perk up a quilt! That would make it SO cheerful and personal.
If you want to cut and paste, that could also change it up. Here are some great ideas I've found and saved in my "scrappy strippy quilts" file
