National Sew a Jelly Roll Day is Tomorrow!!

 Tomorrow is National Sew a Jelly Roll Day!!!!   Do you have your project picked out??  Here is some last minute ideas if you need a little Jelly Roll Inspiration :)

Petal Pop is probably my most popular Jelly Roll friendly pattern.  I have taught this class so many times, and it is always a favorite among students.   It would be a great one to sew up tomorrow, and it comes in multiple size options, so you don't have to make this big King size ;)  


In fact, I made this Baby size version a few years back on National Sew a Jelly Roll day.   So fun!!!  I got the quilt quilt top done that day, so it really does go together fast ;)  


And I also have a lot of great Jelly Roll Tutorials!!   One of my all time favorites is my Read with Me quilt.  This book quilt is easy to make with Jelly Rolls and then just a bit of applique to finish it off.  I just love this quilt, and it is still a treasure in our home.   And most of all, I just love this picture, how cute are my kiddo's :)   My how time flies!!


And if you have an Ombre Jelly Roll, or any solid color Jelly Rolls for that matter, Shine would be a great quilt to make up!!!   You all know I love a good Chain Quilt and this one really lets you play with the color placement in the chain.  So fun!!!


And Playing the Scales is also another popular one.  The original tutorial was written for Fat Quarters, but I later added the alterations for making it with Jelly Rolls which is way less cutting!!!   It is a great one for using up some of those low volume strips we don't know what to do with ;)


And I have lot's of other tutorials using Jelly Rolls as well, just surf down to the Jelly Roll section to find a favorite :)

Now I just have to decide what I am going to make!!!  I have had this Jelly Roll Rug pattern waiting around for sometime, maybe it is time to get that made up :)

I hope you all have a very Happy Quilting (and Jelly Rolling) Weekend!!!

Happy Mail and a New Leader & Ender Quilt

Talk about Happy Mail!!!   The Bonnie and Camille Quilt Bee book is in the house!!!  I am just thrilled and have already flipped through all the pages of wonderful projects.   And of course, I want to make them all :)


I was super excited to find my name among the contributor's of blocks for the Beehive Quilts in this book.  How fun to be part of 583 quilters from 11 countries and 48 states that helped contribute blocks for Bonnie and Camille's Beehive Quilts.   


Which made me think, why not make my own :)    I just love the layout of Bonnie's Beehive Quilt, and I actually need a new Leader and Ender Quilt and this would be perfect!!  You might recall, I was working on this new project for Leader and Ender's but it didn't work to keep changing the stitch length as it was paper piecing, so it got moved to a long-term project.   So now this Beehive Quilt will be a perfect replacement, I am so excited!!!  What a fun place to start in this amazing Bonnie and Camille Quilt Bee book.

And the good news is, I have a big stack of 2 1/2" squares just waiting.  This is going to be so fun!!!

A Star is Born Class

 I had such a wonderful time this weekend at The Stitching Room.  Friday evening I shared my  Charming Baby Quilts Trunk Show, which sorry, but I don't have any pictures of.  That is what happens when I am talking up front and Barbara is holding quilts ;)  We just run out of hands, tee hee hee.   But it was so fun to finally get to share my Charming Baby Quilts live!! And then Saturday I did a class for the A Star is Born quilt from the cover of Charming Baby Quilts.  And goodness, we had such a great time!!!  These ladies were so much fun to sew with and it was such a joy to be teaching again!!!


And we even had some gals finish their quilts in class!!!   How incredible is that, an entire quilt finish in one class.   This is Amy and she did hers in Back Porch by Me and My Sister Designs.   Isn't that just so cute, and paired with the polka dot background, just adorable!!!


And Sue made her's with some Poppie Cotton Country Road Charms and I love that Sea Glass Country Confetti Cotton background!!!  It just makes all of those beautiful pinks, navy, and creams just pop!!!  Just gorgeous!!!  


And Amy B. went scrappy with some old Christmas charms she had stashed away.  Isn't that gold background she added just amazing!!!  Talk about a rich Christmas Quilt!!!  


You only need 2 Charm Packs and 2 yards of Background Fabric to make this quilt and I just loved seeing all of the different fabric combinations everyone choose.   And those that didn't finish are super close, so I am sure there will be lots more A Star is Born quilts soon!!!   In fact, I have seen lots and lots online so I will have to share more of those soon as well :)    

I am just so thrilled that Randi from The Stitching Room in Richfield Utah had me come and share and teach.   What a joy it was!!!  And if you are in the area, be sure to stop by her cute store, it is just so great, and Barbara and I had some fun shopping as well :) 

I hope you all have a Happy Quilting Day!!!!
