I Joined Jelly Roll Sampler

Thanks to my friend Nanette... I joined the Jelly Roll Sampler Quilt Along. I saw her darling blocks on her blog and thought this would be so fun and easy to do. Nanette has been asked to do one of the blocks for the quilt. Hers will be block # 6 to be released on May 10th. I can't wait to see hers!


I decided to do this quilt from brights.


This is block #1 designed by Konda Luckau...
the person responsible for this great quilt.
You can find the instructions here.


This is block # 2. Instuctions for this one are here.
April Mazzoleni designed this cute block.


This is block # 3. Very easy and fun...
made by Debbie Maddy. You can find it here.

Block # 4 is coming up this Monday and I can hardly wait!
Every other Monday there is a new
 12" block with instructions. Be sure and check them out.

While most poeple are doing their blocks from a jelly roll... I decided that I would go into my stash instead and make my own jelly roll of brights from the fabric that I had on hand. This way I could live up to the challenge from my "Stash Manicure" blog.
If you haven't heard about it yet... just read my last post or go to the link above. Hope you will join us!

Are you having a fun time in Vegas? Missed seeing you the other morning, but I figured you had family time commitments.

Good for you! Some of my stash includes jelly rolls so that is what I am using for the Sampler Quilt. Your bights will be fun and festive! They are so much more me but I promised myself I could only play if I used what I had. :)

Funny, I also decided to join in the Jelly Roll Sampler. I keep seeing such cute blocks on some of my favorite blogs and thought I should do this but don't have a jelly roll. Then I remembered strips I cut for a Quilt-a-long last summer and decided I would use those. Yes! Going to start my blocks tonight!

Eileen said...

You are too kind to me. Thanks for your nice words. This is fun. I just finished block #3. And block 4 should be out today. I'm excited to do this project. It is easy and quick!

Oh, your blocks are sew pretty. I saw that Jelly Roll Quilt Along and debated long and hard about doing it. Now I'm going to have to think about it again (lol).
