A Jelly Roll quilt

 I am getting a late start today!!! But not really, I was outside with the horses and working and oh my!! you all people who live in the constant humidity... I DO NOT envy you!!! I am so glad for rain, but the humidity.... I am wilting haha!!!

I started a new thing!!!!

I was rearranging my piles of fabrics and I found a Jelly Roll - and I said to myself

"Self!!! Find a pattern and lets go!!!"

And so I did 

I found this Bordered 9 patch at MSQC - and off I went....

The blocks take a little bit of time ( for me!! I want quick and easy) but they are not hard - and I find that if I work in 2 or 4 at a time - they go pretty quick!!


In my head it will be 6 x 7 blocks ( as I think I get one block per strip - and I Think  I have 42 strips)


Now!! It is off to shower and start the next part of the day! I am going to give a shameless plug though - Amazon Days is July 11 and 12 - and I love sales.... but I want you to know about these amazing 

Waterpik Shower heads...They will be on sale - and you will want one ( or two)


This one is the Powerpulse HandHeld:
it is what I have, and I love it!!

Now - they also have Dental Flossers on sale for Prime Days:

And this is the one that I have: 

 
It is called the Waterpik Aquarius Water Flosser :

I hear you on simple blocks. But those are really nice blocks even if they are a bit fiddly. They would also make really good RSC blocks too. Humidity does me in all the time. And, temps in the high 80s and anywhere in the 90s. UGH. Thank goodness for air conditioning and my basement studio.

I love MSQC tutorials, I will have to check this one out as I think it looks fun to do. I hate humidity too, it just drains me. We have been pretty lucky so far this summer and not had the terrible stuff.

I do love the MSQC tutorials. Your blocks look fantastic. I have a few jelly rolls and might need to try something like this. AccuQuilt is perfect for cutting all these pieces! I may have to try that Waterpik Flosser! Does it have good force? Thanks for sharing with us at Monday Musings.

You've gotten a good start on your new project. Happy stitching! Hope the humidity clears up soon. We've had just enough rain to make it humid, but not enough to ease the drought conditions here.
