    I have a batik roll (3.5 yds) of 2 1/2" strips. Any ideas what pattern I should use to make a quilt?

    I have almost the exact same roll! I was planning on doing the super fast jelly roll quilt I found in the tutorial section, but I'm sure others will have more interesting ideas, lol!

    I just bought the Jelly Roll Quilts book. Haven't picked my pattern yet. Have a batik jelly roll waiting for me to pick.

    On the Missouri Quilt Company site under tutorials, look for Summer in the Park. I just made it with strips and I love how it turned out. www.missouriquiltco.com

    The super fast jelly roll is what I was thinking. I have made 2 of them and I love how they come out. 1 of mine is in batik's that I am turning into a king size quilt for my queen size bed.
    BTW I love the jelly roll you have those are some nice colors.
    There have been some that have made bargello's using the jelly roll.
    What ever you decide I hope it is fun to do.

    I made the one I had into a bargello. It's one of my favorite quilts.
