For quilters who love working with precuts, More Jelly Roll Quilts is exactly the kind of book that makes you want to pull a jelly roll straight from your stash and start sewing. Designed around the ever-popular 2½-inch precut fabric strips, this book provides a collection of quilt patterns that transform simple strips into striking quilt designs.
Jelly rolls have become one of the most popular quilting precuts for a reason—they eliminate hours of cutting while still giving quilters endless creative possibilities. This book builds on that concept by offering patterns that are specifically designed to maximize the potential of jelly roll fabrics.
