    That is so beautiful. Love the colors!

    This is a top I made from jelly rolls. Two paired strips make two 8" opposite blocks.

    I always look at those, get intimidated, and move on. I need less stimulus I guess. Could also be that I have a weird thing about calicos, I love them, know how to use them, and collect them. I just know you will do something wonderful with it.

    I love your quilt! What a GREAT idea! Did you wash them before making the quilt? How big is your quilt and how many jelly roles did you use?
