LASAGNA QUILTS
#21
Now you've done it! I looked at the instructions and quilts and HAD to buy some jelly rolls. I have never used them before. I bought purple and lavender rolls for a purple quilt! Just what I needed, more fabric! But I WILL make this quilt........someday.

to QuiltE.....I am in the process, working on 2. I have the strips sewn but have not squared them or gotten the borders on them yet.Yes I plan to add borders as it will prevent the quilt from pulling apart at the ends of the seams. I usually like to quilt and bind before I do the photos. I work on several quilts at a time, so it takes a while to get them finished. I assure you, the method worked!

Here is a quick tip for these quilts: Use your serger! I made one of these quilts last night in just a few hours. Don't forget that you can put your inner and outer borders on with the serger, too. Super fast!!!

Are we discussing two different kinds of quilts on this thread? The one link for a lasagna quilt is made with full width-of-fabric strips, cut varying widths, sewn onto a backing with batting (quilt as you go style), the others seem to be talking about the "jelly roll race" type quilts which are not quilt as you go. Either would make a great quick and easy quilt, but they aren't the same.

Thanks for clarifying. I was beginning to wonder about this subject. I had never heard a Jelly Roll quilt called a Lasagna quilt. Someone asked it it was quilt as you go and I could not imagine how that was done. Now you have clarified and explained. I thought I was confused!
