Question about using layer cake vs. Jelly roll

I have a Tonga treat Natick in a layer cake but need a jelly roll. Can't find one anywhere. Would it be acceptable to cut the layer cake into strips sewing them into the required lengths which vary from 3 to 36 inches. I have an applique that could cover an are that may have a lot of seams.

If most of the strips are less than 10 ", then it makes sense. It could be a lot of extra seams if most are longer, but there is no reason you could not do it. I would be careful about strips that are 11" - 13". Try to place the seam closer to the middle of that strip (rather than sew a 10" to a tiny piece). Please let us know how it works out.
