Konda Luckau of Moose on the Porch Quilts has organized a sew-along. The project is a sampler quilt made out of a jelly roll. Not the pastry. A jelly roll is a collection of fabric strips 2 1/2 inches wide by 36 inches long. The strips are then rolled up in a circle and tied with a ribbon which makes them look like a jelly roll - hence the name. I happen to have a jelly roll that has been sitting in a drawer for a few months. It is from the fabric line called Objects of Desire (shoes). I bought it to make something for my oldest daughter who loves shoes. I haven't been able to decide what to make out of it, so this is a perfect project. 12 designers have each selected one block to put in the quilt. This is the first block.
