I'm late... I was away last week and intended to post on Tuesday, as usual, but just realized I forgot all about it! Anyway, there's something new on my Tasting Table that I'm really excited about. Awhile back, I bought this gorgeous Jelly Roll of grey Puttin' on the Ritz fabric, just because I loved it. Grey and Cream is such an elegant combination and I thought it would make a really amazing baby quilt. I've been staring at it for ages, and finally decided to cut into it last week. I chopped it all up into 4 1/2" long pieces, then arranged them in a really simple layout - so easy!!! I saw a quilt laid out like this somewhere on the internet (sorry, don't remember where) so I got to work on EQ and drew it up. The jelly roll is heavier in greys than creams, but I was able to make a 40" x 48" quilt and you can see how many "bricks" I still have left over for a future quilt. The pale blue you see on the left is my backing fabric. I found it at Enchanted Mountain Quilt Shop in Olean NY, and the cream & grey rings on it match the jelly roll fabrics perfectly. Can't wait to see this one finished! It will be listed in my Etsy shop when it's done. Have a wonderful weekend! Cheers!
I love doing jellies like that! So much fun!
