Jelly Roll Jam II and a GIVEAWAY!

Fat Quarter Shop has another fabulous shortcut quilt for you guys today!

Jelly Roll Jam II

Guess what? This pattern is so quick and easy it is a must do for your quilty list! If you are like me you probably have a stack of jelly rolls setting around dying to become an actual quilt:) Two things I love…..the pattern is FREE and it will make you TWO quilts!!!

Into the Woods by Lella Boutique

I used one of my newer jelly rolls, Into the Woods by Lella Boutique for Moda, you can get one of these cute little jelly rolls HERE.

Jelly Rolls 10% off at Fat Quarter Shop through Aug. 24, 11:59p.m./CST!

Since the Jelly Roll Jam II pattern makes two quilts I decided to separate mine into two color ways…..Light and Dark. This gave me some pretty combos of pink/green and a red/brown.

Into the Woods by Lella Boutique

This quilt goes together quick! Seriously…..one quilt can be done start to finish in a day, love that!

Jelly Roll Jam II, The Sassy Quilter

Take 1

The Red/Brown color combo is a different one for me, but I really liked it! I love the hint of mint mixed in there.

Jelly Roll Jam II, The Sassy Quilter

Jelly Roll Jam II, The Sassy Quilter

I tried something totally different for the quilting on this one…..a wood grain design. I really just free-styled it using some organic wavy lines and adding a swirl for the knot in the wood. To fill in around I just echoed around the knot. This design is pretty forgiving…..trees are kind of gnarly anyway, right! So go for it and give it a try.

Jelly Roll Jam II, The Sassy Quilter

I used a solid on the back so you can really see the quilting.

Take 2

Jelly Roll Jam II, The Sassy Quilter

Didn’t this one come out so soft and sweet??? Pink and Green is one of my favorite color combos!

Jelly Roll Jam II, The Sassy Quilter

As always I used my custom made labels from ikaprint! You can make your own HERE, easy and inexpensive.

For my quilting I used an allover stipple or meander, but kept it large so my quilt would still feel soft and cozy:)

Jelly Roll Jam II, The Sassy Quilter

These quilts finish at 36.5″ x 38.5″….great baby quilts. I suppose you could put all the blocks together and make a throw size quilt.

Jelly Roll Jam II, The Sassy Quilter

Even though I kind of separated this jelly roll…..they sure do look good together too!

Here is the FREE Pattern
