jelly roll quilt

My friends Lari, Monica and I spent last Friday making jelly roll quilts. We used the same fabrics, but all are so different. In case you don't know what a jelly roll quilt is, it is 40 strips of fabric from 40 different fabrics. Or at least that is the way ours were made. All the fabrics were dog related, Paws, bones, etc.
Just all different prints/colors.
This is all 3 of our quils. Lari is on the left, mine is in the middle and Monica is on the right.
Then we gave them a quarter turn and they look so different again, but they are in the Same order.



This is Lari's.



This is mine.



This is Monica's.
They all will have borders when we get finished with them.
THe record for sewing a jelly roll quilt is 35 minutes. I saw that on UTUBE. It definitely took us longer, but they went together really fast.
Hope you enjoy.
