Hello and happy Friday! Did you know that tomorrow is National Sew a Jelly Roll Day? You might have heard little bits about this here and there in the past few weeks. National Sew a Jelly Roll Day was started in order to encourage makers, sewists, and quilters to break open a jelly roll and create something fun. Along with quilts, there are many other options to use for jelly rolls: bags, runners, pillows, clothing, rugs, and more! Keep reading because I’m having a two-day sale on my Jelly Roll Quilt Patterns to help you celebrate…

National Sew a Jelly Roll Day
I actually still remember the first Jelly Roll I purchased. It was from the Authentic collection by Sweetwater which I believe was their first collection. And I had such a hard time deciding what to make with it. In fact, I never used it. I did unroll it and still have the strips from that collection in a jelly roll bin!
