Even when you go to a shop , most are all sealed up and you can only see about 1/4 inch of the fabric.
I would also like a jelly roll of natural on natural color background or white on white in 20 no duplicate ( if I wanted doubles I would order 2).
How about a jelly roll of metalics !!! wow ! I would be all over that one!

I order one jelly roll set -- cherry -- but it was much more to the pink end of the spectrum. I was disappointed.

At least 42 strips, no two alike, and be reasonably priced! It's really hard for me to shell out almost $40 for a jelly roll. I usually see if I can find them on sale. The only one so far that I just HAD to have is the Sandhill Plumes and I had to pay full price.... I found the layer cake on sale almost a month ago and finally found the JR.

With "juniors", if you need two you still have the problem of duplicates...

I have found 20 count jelly rolls from Liz Katsuro whose site is [email protected]. They are very nice and she has lots of solids should you need to add those to the pattern fabric roll. I have used them for several quilts and so far they run true. When I started buying them they were $9.97. They now start at $13.97. She usually has a special where you purchase so many and receive a free one.
