Inspire. Empower. Create.
How does the poem go? “A quilting tool with many uses is a joy forever!”
The Binding Tool was invented for bindings, but that’s not all it can do! (Jenny has an entire collection of Binding Tool quilt tutorials HERE!)
This week Jenny has whipped up yet another Binding Tool masterpiece! Starstruck is a gorgeous pattern with big star blocks made out of 2.5 inch strips. Click HERE to watch the video!
This mini tutorial shows you a fun, fast way to create a darling little petunia block. All you need is a roll of 2.5″ strips and some background fabrics. You are going to love how quickly this comes together! Click the button below to learn to recreate this quilt!
Our friends at Moda are hosting “National Sew a Jelly Roll Day today, Sept. 16, and we are super excited! We couldn’t resist such a tempting invitation to break into our stash of sweet 2.5” fabric strips, so we thought we’d share some of our all-time favorite Jelly Roll projects!
First one up is the Jelly Roll Race Quilt, a fantastic quilt for a beginner, and a wonderful way to show off an entire jelly roll! We think this Poetry Prints Jelly Roll would make a florally fragrant Jelly Roll Race Quilt.
Another fast and easy fabric strip creation is the Stack and Flip Quilt! It looks great in rainbow colors, but a Colors of Moda Blue Jelly Roll would create a blue sky or oceanic effect. Add some applique for a fun spin!
If you want to use a jelly roll to create a bag to hold…ahem…more jelly rolls, then check out Man Sewing’s Folded Fabric Strips Bag! This sturdy and spacious bag can catch all those fabric shopping trip finds, and a Coney Island Jelly Roll would make an absolutely divine tote!
We have lots of other jelly roll projects that you can find on our Missouri Star Quilt Co. Jelly Roll playlist! Click HERE to watch!
You can view our selection of 2.5″ strips HERE, and if you love your jelly rolls as much as we do, then our “Let Me See That Jelly Roll” shirt is a must-have!
How are you celebrating National Sew a Jelly Roll Day? Be sure to share your jelly roll projects with us on our Facebook and Instagram using #projectjellyroll and #msqcshowandtell! Have fun sewing!
“I want you to remember something: YOU are the designer of this quilt!” – Jenny
The Stack and Flip Quilt is a super simple jelly roll pattern. The real fun comes with great fabric choice – and the choice is all yours! Jenny uses rainbow-hued Spin Basic Bright 2.5″ Strips by Timeless Treasures, but any jelly roll with graduations of color will work.
We’ve put together a whole list of pretty jelly roll options for you HERE. Find something you love, and give it a try! You are the designer! (Be sure to share a pic of your Stack and Flip. We can’t wait to see your design!)
