    Two of my favorite patterns for strips are Bento Box and Strip Twist. Both are fairly easy.

    I’ve made several from Kim Brackett and now have Carolyn Forster jelly roll book too. Love their designs.

    Who doesn't buy the fabric first?

    Go forth and find a pattern you love!

    You could also type in Jelly Roll Quilts in Google then go to Images. You'll find gazillions there and the links will lead often you to the patterns.

    Any pattern by Eleanor Burns usually has size options for “crib” or “wallhanging” to king” size of the pattern. Some are deceptively easy to do and look very difficult. She is the pioneer of “assembly line sewing”. I love her patterns for this reason. She is also wonderful at organizing her steps, and I have learned to do the same from using her patterns.

    I would check on Moda's Bake Shop. You can select the precut size you are working with, then the type of project you want to make. www.modabakeshop.com

    Jo Kramer has a lot of free patterns, although I don't know if there is an easy way to sort them. http://www.joscountryjunction.com

    One of my favorites of Jo's is Chains of Faith. I made it in the same fabrics she used, which is unusual for me - but that is how much I liked it. It's not truly a full queen sized, but you could add borders to make it larger.

    Me, too! One of my favorite quilts for jelly rolls is Summer in the Park, which is available in a MSQC video. It's not queen size, as I recall, but would be if you plan borders to make it the size you want. You may be able to find yardage in fabric from the jelly rolls. I have even found matching yardage on Etsy a couple of times when the fabric I wanted was discontinued. Hope you'll post a picture of your finished quilt.

    I have one of these tops in my UFO pile. It took me awhile to get the border fabric by mail, and by the time it arrived I'd started something else, so I lost momentum, but it still calls to me. Eventually....
