OK...it is jelly roll style, but not a jelly roll quilt. I pulled them out of 2.5" strips bags--just color coordinated them into browns/greens, purple/pinks, etc. (I did several of them). That is why there are all sorts of lengths of the strips. It's really a scrappy, but jelly roll style.

I think the quilting improves the design.

Different,but maybe you'll start a new trend. I agree with you about some of the modern quilts. :-) 98 done this year? Oh, my. That's quite an accomplishment!

From the comments, it sounds like you're starting something new! I love it too and would be interested in trying it.

I really like your 'jelly roll style' quilt and I usually don't care much for jelly roll quilts. Having the different lengths of strips goes a long way towards making it interesting. Now, this is funny (at least to me) because I normally really like modern quilts but I don't care for the 'fractured' quilting. I tried it once and hated the result. I like yours better than mine, but am still not crazy for that style of quilting. Here's mine - you be the judge.
