I did one a couple years ago using all blue batiks and adding some red batik squares randomly. It breaks them up nicely.

I to missed the original thread. What a great idea. I use the strip method for the back of my quilts, next time a nice contrast block will be added. Thanks for the idea.

Hah, this one was super - I watched Jenny's video (MSQC) on this site (video referenced half-way down page) and laughed - she did her usual "it's so much fun" presentation and it was hilarious! A really neat idea for a quilt.

This would be perfect for using them. Thanks so much.

Wow, where did you find the strips for $2. Great for charity quilts.

My 'Try It' Quilt on 04-20-2013. I would do a direct link if I knew how but you should be able to type in the title in the search box. Hope this is the one you are looking for.[/COLOR][/B][/QUOTE]

I really like this one with random solid black squares in the jellyroll quilt.

jelly roll ideas

[Thanks so much for the links. ]

I guess that I also missed this. Clever way to add some zip to the jelly roll. I also appreciated the link to the Lyn Brown site. More ideas --just not enough time.
