When you join a jelly roll together you have 1600 inches of fabric hence the name 1600 quilt! So with your 1600 by 2 1/2 inches you fold it in half to create 800 by 5 which you then sew. Then you repeat the process until you are left with 50 by 80. That is how I made my 1600 jelly roll quilt.
I have just been asked to make a quilt from a jelly roll. The customer had purchased fabrics from the Ocean Wave and Summer Days range by Fabric Freedom since they are so vibrant but didn't know what to make.
First time the long arm has been out this year!
