Busy Quilting Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 I made this quilt for my grandson, I cut my strips at 3" wide and just used all the green fabrics I could find in the stash that were fat quarter or more!! Made using the jelly roll race notion but not the jelly roll. It ended up 59" x 87". It only took 10 hours from the time I started cutting strips to when I finished machining the binding to the front. I was on a very tight time frame. Haven't even got a full picture of it, I think I put a 3" wide border around it using the backing fabric as I had a lot of it. Lyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quilts4myluv Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 It's called "Trade Winds" the original pattern uses one Bali Pop and a nutral beige fabric for the background but I decided to put in more color. It got a Blue Ribbon at the County Fair. Here is the PDF for the pattern http://www.hoffmanfabrics.com/EDocs/Site10/Trade%20Winds%20F0808.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandra Darlington Posted September 22, 2011 Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 Heather...Nobody told me to cut the first 18" off! That would have made a big difference. The gal just said to join them all with a mitered join. That's why mine were almost all on one side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
