Love it. I also really like Jelly Rolls. Have charm packs, but have not used them yet. What is the pattern? How many jelly rolls did you use? Mind if I do the same thing? Is the background a tan? Did you do the backgroung with a solid jelly roll? Thanks BrendaK Sorry, read the rest of the post and got the link. Thank You.

Hi, they say not to prewash. I do it anyway. I have prewashed in the bathtub and in a bucket. I then put them over the shower bar to dry I have also put them in the dryer. I have washed Jelly Rolls and Charm packs. I made a fence rail for DGD with a jelly roll and it turned out very nice. My GD loves it. BrendaK

I'd like the 3rd quilt pattern if you would be so kind. Did I see that the view is of the back of the quilt or is it the front?

Thanks! My quilt finished at 68 x 68. Surprisingly, my 17 year old son has claimed it. He said he likes the soft colors.

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 love it, too. Would like just a little (or a lot) of info about it. How many jelly rolls did it take?
Thanks in advance!
