1600 Jellyroll Quilt At Last

I heard about the 1600 Strip Jellyroll Quilt when visiting at my parent's assisted living home. This super lady who owns a quilt shop comes to the assisted living every Tuesday to share with the ladies and just have a good time sewing and talking. Many resident ladies just sit and give their opinions. When the leader of the quilting bee shared the idea of the 1600 quilt, I was intrigued.

So I bought Moda "Hello Luscious" jellyroll that I just loved. I sat down to the sewing machine and had a quilt top in two hours. I was amazed. So here is that fun quilt.

The quilt began by sewing strips end to end--ending with a 1600 inch strip.

 

The process begins-- (if you need tutorial, search Google for 1600 quilt pattern.)

The quilt measures about 58 x 64. I used one jellyroll, 3 yards of fabric (but would buy a little more next time), and 1/2 yard for binding.

Wanted to share my label. I think it is so cute. I chose not to put a large label.

This was such a fun and quick quilt and could be finished in a couple of days--start to finish. I chose to quilt in an all-over pantograph, but one friend just quilted it by stitching on the seams with a fancy/fun stitch.
