Jelly Roll Sampler Quilt Along 2010

**For anyone just joining us, welcome!  Come and play!  Grab a jelly roll and play catch up.  Let me clarify a little upfront:
1) There isn't an email list to remind you when the blocks are available.  You can sign up to be notified when my blog is updated.  I have posted instructions HERE
2)  All you need to do now is make your block and post it onto our Flickr group HERE.  If you need help, try THIS post.
3)  You can always check this post for the new blocks, but they are first listed as a post on my blog, then I add that link at the bottom of this post.   

I am excited to introduce something that I have had in the works for a little while now:
A Jelly Roll Sampler Quilt Along!



From March 1 to August 2, every other Monday, instructions for a new 12" block will be posted. All of the blocks will be made from jelly roll strips and yardage.

Each block will be designed by a different person. Every two weeks there will be a guest blogger on my blog introducing herself and her block. At the end, you will have made a fun quilt 58" x 72."

Of course, all along the way there will be prizes for those who complete the blocks. Here is a picture of the quilt:

I will fill it in as we go with the blocks that we make.

Here's the nitty gritty:

Fabric Requirements --
1 jelly roll
2 yards background and sashing fabric
1 1/2 yards outer border fabric
2/3 yard binding fabric
3 3/4 yards backing fabric

Grab a jelly roll and some background fabric and let's get started!

The first drawing will be on March 1 when I post the first block. To enter this drawing, comment on this post that you want to join us and what fabric line you are thinking about making it in.

P.S. Scrappy is absolutely fine too. This quilt would make a great stash buster project.

P.P.S. I am making mine out of Attitude Girls by Mary Engelbreit for Moda.

The second drawing will be on March 15 when the first guest blogger posts the second block. Anyone who has made a block and posted it on a flickr site: (http://www.flickr.com/groups/1343277@N20/) will be entered in the drawing.

There will be another drawing each time block instructions are posted. Anyone who posts a picture of a new block since the last drawing will be entered in the next drawing. The block that you post a picture of doesn't have to be just the previous block. It can be for any of the previous blocks that you haven't posted yet.

I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!

Oh, I want to do this. Right now, because I am showing so much self control, I think I will make a scrappy blue or red quilt. But, when the time comes, I may go out and purchase something because I am sometimes weak that way. We'll see, but either way, count me in.

Crafty Maine Mom said...

This sound like so much fun. I got a jellyroll for Christmas. I'm at work so I don't know the specific line. I can't wait for March now. Yeah

free indeed said...

I would like to do this with all of you. I don't own a commercial jelly roll, but will use up some noodles I've swapped in the past...have a whole drawer of them. Now to think of a color scheme....
Shelley

Lauren said...

I'm in! I don't know what fabric I'll be using yet though. I'm nervous!

Deb said...

I'd like to play! I have about 10 - 12 jelly rolls...no kidding! I'll have to check them all out and see which one I'd like to use for this quilt along! Thanks for organizing it. (I'm working on a couple of other quilt-alongs, too, so starting in March is good--gives me a little bit of time to get started on these others!)

Chl said...

I will be doing a scrapish one.

Do we get a preview of the guest designers???

Debbie said...

Can't wait to join in the fun..now which jelly roll should I use.

Debbie said...

I found my Odyesses by MOMO jelly roll and some linen for the background. Yay!

Miss Dream USA said...

I am in but which jelly roll to use.....

Lori said...

I'm in. Now I just need to go through my stash and decide on which fabric to use. This should be fun.

Unknown said...

You can count me in! Don't know which jelly roll yet. Have too many to choose from but then you can never have enough jelly!

Terry said...

OH WOW< I'm in!!! I have a jelly roll and I had no idea what to do with it...Now I do ;) I will be using Recipe For friendship by Mary Engelbreit for Moda. How exciting!!!

chardel said...

I'm gonna try this one. Fairly new to quilting so I am nervous about it. But anyways I am using the silly safari jelly roll for this.

Lisa said...

Ooo, how exciting! I will use either Aviary, Hartfield or Portugal...not sure yet. Do you have any hints on contrast? That may help along my decision!

Jill said...

Oh! I can't wait for 3/1 to get here. I haven't been able to decide what to do with my Mary Englebreit jelly roll. Too much fun!

Trish said...

Count me in. I'm not sure which Jelly roll I will use. I just purchase a few of my first ones and I'm not sure which one I will finally unwrap

Kathy said...

I'd like to do this as I have tons of fabric to dispose of! LOL
I hope I can keep up, I teach 6th grade and I also suffer from Lupus and Rheumatoid arthritis, so sometimes my energy level is pretty low. But I really want to try. Count me in. Mine will be scrappy, probably of African fabrics.

DIDI said...

Hello! I'd like to join this quilt-along too if I may.
I´ll probably have a jelly roll by then although I may rather use tons of the scraps that are overflowing my scrap bucket.

Kathleen said...

This sounds like fun. I'm going to use a Birdie Jelly Roll. Come on March!

Emily said...

I really, really don't need to join another quilt along, but I would love to do a sampler. I'll try to keep up!

Molly said...

I can hardly resist a quilt-along! :) I'm not sure which line I'll use yet...we'll see.
Congrats on the Moda Bake Shop quilt! I love it! :)
~Molly

busyascanbe said...

I'd like to join the frenzy and need to reduce my stash mountain so will be working with scraps - thanks!

marlene@ByTheSeam said...

I would love to do that too. I am not sure if I will use scraps or get a jelly roll, I have a couple that I would like to get.I have wanted to do more strip quilts anyway. I will take your button so I can get back here. Loved your Moda Bake Shop quilt.

lkbrogan1003 said...

Jo said...

This sounds like fun!
I'm undecided about what to use for fabric...I have a swanky roll sitting around. I also have LOTS of scraps. After I see the first block, I'll decide.

Anonymous said...

I want to play! :D I have 4 (or 5???) jelly rolls sitting in my closet and I don't know which one I'll use yet. But I need to use them! :D

Renegade Quilter said...

I am so in! I have a Figgy Pudding jelly roll and yardage that I bought last year. Now I know what I am going to do with it. Thanks! I can't wait to get started.

Lauren said...

Just got my jelly roll today! I am using Make Life by Sweetwater for Moda. I don't have any background fabric yet. Will we need it in the first block and would you recommend using fabric from the same line or just anything that coordinates?

carole ann said...

Please count me in, I'm going to use A Breath of Avignon/American Jane. This sounds like fun.

Linda said...

Neat idea. I'v just finished cutting my scraps in jelly roll, charm, layer cake and nickel-size pieces to do just this sort of thing. Can't wait to get started. Thanks for sharing,
Linda

Marie-Thérèse said...

There is a Prairy Paisley jelly rol in my cupboard. I could not decide for myself what to make of it, so I will leave the designing to you and will join in. Looking forward to this fun :o)

Sharm said...

This does sound like a lot of fun... & I just finished saying I need to seriously use up some of my stash I have, so I will make a scrappy quilt - not sure what colours yet, may have to get some other fabrics as well.

Else Marie said...

I am from Denmark, this sounds like fun. So please count me in.

Spook said...

Hi,

I would like to be in this BOM too!

Teresa said...

I am in...sounds like fun. I have a jelly roll that I have been wondering what to use it for.

Moose on the Porch Quilts said...

Boy, I don't know if I will be able to wait until Mar 1. This is going to be fun!

To answer the question about the background/sashing fabric --

If you are looking for contrast, sometimes you want to choose a fabric that isn't in the fabric line that you have chosen. For example, the white that I chose is Kona Snow. That obviously isn't in the Attitude Girls fabric line. Some fabric lines will have one or two fabrics that provide good contrast (sometimes light sometimes dark) like the bright pink in Verna. You can look in the fabric line for the background fabric, but don't feel confined to the fabric line.

WENDY said...

I am In. I Love your patterns. Thinking of using browns and blues

Barb Johnson said...

This sounds like a lot of fun! I think that I will go scrappy, because I discovered that I have waaaay too many FQs!

She sews and scraps said...

Oh wow! so glad I found your blog and I am in on doing this quilt along!
I think I am going to use Moda Martinique! Glad you are starting in March :)
Thanks!

She sews and scraps said...

if I can't get the Martinique in yardage, I will use Verna :)

Ellen Easter said...

I have a collection of Jelly Rolls - I will have to pick just one to star. Can't wait until the first block

Katie Bishop said...

I would love to do this too!

Candy said...

I have MANY Jelly Rolls and OODLES of noodle bins, but the front runner at the moment is a bright Rainbow of colors on a black background. How does that sound??

Anonymous said...

I was trying to resist starting another project, but then this morning I saw that the new Nicey Jane jelly roll is on sale at http://missouriquiltco.com/shop/deal-a-day for $21.95 for today only and I couldn't resist.... so count me in, too!

Tina O. said...

I have a collection of jelly rolls and I don't know what to do with them. This will be the perfect project! I can't wait.

Terry said...

Add me to the list! I have four jelly rolls sitting here and it would be great to use one of them up on this! I have no idea which one I'll use...guess I'd better figure that out before March 1! Thanks! :0)

-girl from the bush said...

hi. i think i might like to join in this too, sounds fun!! just to pick a jelly roll....

Sandy said...

Sounds like a lot of fun and spread out enough that I could keep up! Looking forward to see who the guest blocks will be. I think I will be using Verna by Kate Spain or Rouenneries by French General...love both!

arlette said...

I'd like to join, may I?, I'll use golden and brown shades, ahhhh can't wait for march!

Barb said...

That does sound like fun!!!

Simone de Klerk said...

Yes, this is exactly what I needed. I have three jelly rolls and never made anything with them. This sounds like so much fun! I think I will use my Snippets jelly roll, which I have had for a year now.
Thank you so much for organizing this! Wow, really something to look forward to. Can't wait (((O:

Seams Sew Together said...

Ok Ok !! I'm a bit scared becuase of time factors and being my first quilt along, but its so tempting I just cannot resist. So....big breath...I'm in. Now to figure out which jelly roll to use..

Simply Sandy said...

I want to play! ;)

Wendy said...

Can I play too? I have had a charm pack,a jelly roll and some yardage of WeePlay for quite some time now and I think this would be a good time to crack it open. Looking forward to the first block.

Anna said...

I want to join in ,hope I can figure out how to put your button on my blog. I have half a moda jelly roll left and will add scraps.

Mike and Jen said...

I am so excited to try this quilt along. This will be my first one! I'll have to go looking for a fun jelly roll that I can use for this very thing! Nothing like a good excuse to buy more fabric!

Debi said...

I would very much like to play, now to decide which JR to use. I can't wait to get started.

{hip} said...

I am going to play along using Joanna Figueroa of Fig Tree and Co. for Moda. I am a new quilter and really looking forward to this!

Trudi said...

I'm always up for a great quilt along! Count me in! I have several jelly rolls but also plenty of strips cut in the stash too, I'll have to ponder that thought :) Love the Moda Bake Shop quilt. I'll grab a button so I can make it back!

Gene Black said...

I have several jelly rolls and some extra/leftover strips from some other jelly rolls.

I will play along. Mine will be scrappy. I need the stash busting.

Hey, why don't you enable "follow this blog"? It would ensure that I see the new posts when they come out.

Gene Black said...

I blogged about this too. I hope you don't mind.

raebethriv said...

I've always wanted to make something from a jellyroll, could never pick out a pattern! Thanks for doing it for me!!! Linked to you from another link from quiltedcupcake. I've made a few quilt projects but I still consider myself a newbie. Can't wait!

Judy said...

I would like to join the quilt along. I have a Tradition jelly roll by Howard Marcus.

Moose on the Porch Quilts said...

To answer a few questions --
bright strips with a black background will look fabulous! Can't wait to see it.

Yes, I am, of course, happy for you to blog about our Jelly Roll Sampler Quilt Along. The more the merrier!

I am often asked about linking without code and other such blog technical questions so I decided to make it a post of it's own. Check out my new post "Blogger 101."

Any other questions, feel free to ask.

Thanks!

Trudy said...

I have a feeling this post is going to have my husbands name on it. Why, I don't know. He doesn't use the computer!! LOL Anyway, I'd like to join in and not sure if I will be using scraps or buying a jellyroll.

Trudy said...

Ha! How do I change the name???

Sharrieboberry said...

Please sign me up!

I have a Sandy Gervais "Crazy 8" jelly roll. Just point me in the right direction.

I think my neighbor, Designing Diva, signed up, so maybe we can work on them together. Lord knows, I always need a big PUSH!

Shelley said...

Count me in for this! It's gonna be fun..I am using a Wildflower Serenade Jelly roll from Kansas Troubles.

KatieQ said...

I would love to join in the fun. I have never purchased a jellyroll. I keep looking at all the lovely combinations, but I have promised myself to do some serious stash busting this year so I haven't bought one yet. I'm not sure if I will purchase one or use strips from my stash. Either way, I'm eager to play.

the writer said...

This sounds like so much fun!!

I don't have any jelly rolls myself, but my DH purchased one about a year ago in Tennessee (or was it Virginia?) that is black/white/red.

Hmmm.... maybe I'll have him make a quilt using his jelly roll & I'll make one with scraps from my stash? That sounds fun, doesn't it?

My colors will probably be yellow/red/green since that will go with my living room colors.

Beth said...

OK I'm in! Now to pick my jelly roll (I have a stack of them LOL) and coordinating fabrics. Oh this is gonna be fun :)

Anonymous said...

Sounds like a plan!

Anita in Florida said...

Ok...I'm in. I have a jelly roll of Odelia and can't wait to open it.

WandaQuilts said...

I'm definitely in for a scrappy W/b&w accents; maybe a jellyroll too if I see a nice one where I can choose yardage. Sounds like fun!

Liz said...

Oooooh, can I play too please?? I have about 6 jelly rolls at the moment but I really want to use 'Pack your Bags' by Arrin Turnmire' for Moda. Ooh la la, I touch of French for me!
Can't wait to start this one.

Jan Hatchett said...

Count me in! I haven't done one of these before, but it sounds like such fun!

Elyte said...

Just found the button on someone's blog and I think it is a great idea. I have a roll of Autumn Journey by Kansas Troubles (Moda) that has been lying around for a few years I think!
Doing a shopping trip tomorrow to a shop that is closing down (bad news) but is offering 40% off (good news)so I will hopefully pick up the co-ordinating fabrics. Seriously though, too many of our lovely Melbourne shops seem to be closing down. Bring on March 1st!

Joanne said...

Looking forward to following along. Sorry no blog to display the button. Joanne H

Janet said...

Please include me in this project. Sounds like fun.

Meg said...

Sign me up! I have several jelly rolls sitting in my stash that I haven't been able to decide on a project for, so I think this is a great opportunity for me to bust a little stash! I'm thinking of using a Spring Fever jelly roll, in hopes of brightening up as winter ends!

hilary said...

I'm in. I love a sew along. Pumped and thanks for doing this.

Cindy said...

This sounds like it'd be SO much fun. Please count me in. I will check out my stash to decide on what few jelly rolls I have. And if I don't have enough yardage, then I'll definitely find some more on line and order it. Thank you so much.

Unknown said...

i think this would be fun count me in margie

needlesandpins said...

Hi - I would like to join in, too. Perhaps I will do it scrappy in lack of a jelly roll.

I would love to participate. I need to look for a jelly roll. But I have a couple in mind.

Thanks!
Nici

nrnoodle said...

alice said...

I hope it is not too late to sign up. I have finally convinced myself that I can move into our new house and start a sew-a-long at the same time. I am one of the few people on the planet who does not have a jelly roll so I am going to have to go shopping! Yippee!!

KarrieLyne said...

Oh Oh Oh me me me :) I want to play! I actually have a jelly roll that keeps staring at me every day and I feel bad that I don't have a use for it yet. Perfect timing!!

I will be using Whimsy. Yay! :)

I'm in -- not sure yet which jelly roll I'm going to use, but I can't wait to get started. I'm pretty new to quilting (just got my first sewing machine for Christmas). Wish me luck!

Dresden Quilter said...

I am thinking about Figgy Pudding or Peace on Earth. It would be great to have a Christmas quilt in time for Christmas!

Noela said...

I think I will use Make Life by Sweetwater but I do have acouple of other jelly rolls so could change my mind before March 1. Looking forward to this.

I'm in. I bought a Hushabye jelly roll a while back and wasn't sure what I was going to do with it. This is perfect!

Coyote Quilts said...

Oh yeah, I'm in!!! I have a Santuary jelly roll that I have been 'saving'---

A big 'thank you' goes out to Sharon from Quilting with a marmalade cat, who posted this link!!!

From a fellow Sharon who grew up in the same area (CNY Finger Lakes Region)!

Barb in Mi said...

Greta idea - will try to join with my Neptune jelly roll! Thank you

Suzanna said...

I'm in! I'd have to choose between one of the 2 jelly rolls I already have: Portugal by April Cornell or Aviary by 3 Sisters. Of course, I'd be willing to buy another specifically for this project ;-) Konda, can you guess whether the sampler will look better with muted shades or bold ones? Thanks.

Nancy said...

I'm in. I went home last night and narrowed it down to the Prairie Paisley jelly roll. Now to go through my stash and get my background and border.

Moose on the Porch Quilts said...

Moose on the Porch Quilts said...

Suzanna,

Either one of those jelly rolls
would be great. The sampler will look good with either muted shades or bold ones. The difference is just personal preference. Pick the one you feel drawn to right now.

I am going to LOVE seeing all the different blocks variations. I think this is a hard one to get wrong.

Konda

Suzanna said...

Thanks for the advice, Konda. I'll see where my hear takes me.

Sinta Renee said...

I just linked over here to see what was going on... this sounds like fun, so count me in too! I have a nice stash of Jelly Rolls, however, I think I will use me newest addition... Oz.

Just found this quilt along and I am VERY excited!! This will be my first quilt along and I cant wait to get started. I think for this one I am going to do a scrappy quilt... I just re-organized my fabric and I have a HUGE scrap drawer just waiting to be dug through...either that or I will make up my own Jelly roll of fabrics from my stash...we shall see.

Hi,
I stumbled on your site through another site and would love to do the Jelly Roll quilt. At this point I'm also trying to talk my mother into doing it also! I am thinking about using Moda Rawhide if I can find everything I need!

Sunflower Homesteader said...

Count me in. I have been being stingy with my jelly roll. It is a moda Hemming House. This is exciting to me. Like your blog by the way.

Bought my first Jelly Roll and have no idea whar to do with it, so I am in!

jlk said...

Count me in! I'll probably be doing a scrappy quilt, but we'll see :) I may just have to get new fabric for this!

Debby Brown said...

Heaven help me, but I'm in!

brittany marie davis said...

Sound like fun. I have a dandelion girl jelly roll that I will probably use.

DreamzAngel said...

I'm in, just not sure what jelly roll to use.... Maybe I should go shopping! LOL

Janette said...

I have only been quilting since September so this will be my first and a great excuse to visit my fabric shop and get a Jelly Roll. Can't wait for next week to get started.

Beth said...

I have never done a quilt along but it looks like great fun! I am in. I have JR and some strips from a swap.

Claudia said...

Count me in on this I love Block of the months. So this will be great. I also love that it uses Jelly Rolls. I have a few choices so I not sure which one I use yet.

Jane said...

Sign me up!!! Not sure what jelly roll I will use but I do have a few kicking around that need a project to go with them! I can't wait!! :D

Shannon said...

Count me in. I'm using an older line I've had in my stash. I've just been waiting to use it for something like this. It's Cotton Blossom from Bonnie and Camille. Thanks, this is going to be fun.

Unknown said...

I would love to try and do this.just have to go out a buy a jelly roll

kimland said...

I am in. I just made a purchase today for a jelly roll of Bubble Gum Basics. I was looking for a bundle and this person said they also had a jelly-roll, so how could I resist. I hope it is all I am thinking it will be, if not...PUNT! Here's the clincher... it's coming from Canada so I am already going to be behind the eight ball, but I am keeping my fingers crossed.

I'm in I am going to do a scrappy stash buster. Can't wait for March the first to see the first mystery square.

Vickie E said...

Duh, I guess I should say that this will likely be a Wonderland quilt:-)

Abby said...

What a fun idea. I think I'll use either Glace' or Aster Manor. Love 3 sisters! Thanks

Lisa said...

Sounds like sooo much fun. I would love to join in! I will be using Shangri-La by Moda.

dsaylor said...

I'd love to join in! I have 2 or 3 or maybe even 4 jelly rolls waiting patiently for a fun project.

Anonymous said...

As long as my upcoming surgery Friday goes well, I'm in. Now to decide which Jelly Roll to use. I just love quilt alongs. They keep me motivated to quilt!

Sharon (Stitches on Mars) said...

I think I would like to join in too...though I'm a little nervous about it...I have some left-over swell & sweet jelly rolls and a birdie jelly roll...so not sure what to use...may even have another one...better check :)

Sounds like fun though :)

Hugs, Sharon

spidr said...

I'm so excited to join - this is going to be my first quiltalong! I have a jelly roll of Cotton Blossoms which might be just the thing to use for this quilt!

LyndaG said...

Love to join in. I have a Fig Tree jelly roll and fabric that is waiting for a project.

Kim said...

I would love to join in. I have a Halloween grouping I would like to use and the timing of the blocks is great. My b-day is on Halloween, so this will be a present to myself.

Unknown said...

I am so excited. I wanna join. Now to decide what jelly roll to use!

DutchQuilter said...

I love mystery quilts. This is even better because we get to simplify the cutting with a jelly roll. I can hardly wait. My fabric is aviary.

Unknown said...

How exciting. Mine will be scrappy. A friend and I did a jelly roll strip swap last year... Can't wait.

Kathy said...

Let's see... I've grabbed a button, now the jelly roll part ... hmmm.... I have jelly rolls - boy do I have jelly rolls! The decision now as to which one to use ... definitely want to use a light background for my sampler. So that should make choosing a jelly roll easier. Like I said it should!

Jana said...

Oh! I need to join! I have several jelly rolls so not sure which one I will choose but am excited to get started! Great idea!

Suzanne said...

I would love to join in. i will be doing a scrappy quilt.

Anonymous said...

No jelly rolls here so I will make a scrappy quilt.

Patty said...

This sounds like fun!

Amanda said...

I just found your blog through the "p.s. i quilt" quilt along. I would like to join this quilt along, too. Thanks! I think I may use a jelly roll by Fig Tree Quilts.

Kristin Wilson said...

Count me in.
I love quilt-a-longs. I don't seem to feel quite so overwhelmed!!
Thanks,
Kristin
