Jelly Roll Strip Piecing



This is one of those techniques that will produce a quilt-top in a day - if you have a clear run with your sewing machine, that is.

Update: in 2023, himself and I moved into a Retirement Village which meant, for us, that we were going to a smaller home, which meant that we had to reduce stuff in almost every area of our lives, which included our interests and hobbies. We didn't stop doing our respective interests and hobbies but what we did do, was to downsize what space those interests and hobbies took. For me it was my love of sewing. 
And so, in the mix, I looked at the heap of flimsies I had (a flimsy is a completed quilt top [patched and stitched] but not yet sandwiched into quilt.
And this little number was in the mix of what went! I gave it to our Quilt Guild through the Quilt Club I attend and some angel out there, would take it as it is, or enlarge it and then sandwich and quilt it - from there, it would go to someone via the Charity Depot - whether that be as a knee quilt, a cot cover, a play mat or as a small child's quilt.
