Is the charms & jelly rools quilt (last picture) showing the back or front of the quilt? They're all pretty.

This is my favorite project I've ever made with jelly rolls.

Oh my, what a beauty! Would you PM me to share what pattern this is? I love the colors you chose. The quilt is so attractive without shouting out, and I admire you ability to pick out colors.
Great quilt :wink:

I counted the pre cuts I have in a big basket in my sewing room. I have 9 Moda jelly rolls, 8 packages of layer cakes, ten charm square packs, three boxes of Moda Candy Bars, 12 Turnovers (I don't think these are being made anymore), four Honey Buns and five Bali Pops. I bought all of them on sale for half price or less at different online shops. I love my stash.

I love the full-fabric-line variety of the strips, whose precision pre-cutting takes a lot of work out of the prep stages. For beginners (either to quilting or rotary cutting) this takes a lot of stress off.

There are so many patterns for pre-cuts out there now, made for all skill levels.

Great items for a new quilter but just one tip, buy the best quality Jelly rolls, like Moda, some of the cheaper, n not so cheap, are not cut so well as I have found out that hard way.
