Jelly Roll Race Day Update

If you remember ( as I know you have my blog memorized 😂😂

In September my Quilt of Valor group had a Jelly Roll Race day - and we had a blast!! 

At our last day a lot of us brought back those Jelly Roll quilts. Most were tops - but I think Three were completely quilted, and one of our other quilters too some home to quilt - so YAY!!



I think this is 15 of the 22 that were made? I know a few were on quilting machines - but isn't this so cool!!!

We sued Orphan Star blocks, and Deb used some of her own orphan blocks - and Karen made some cool ones to intersperse in her quilt.. and Vickie added an eagle - they are soo SO cool!!!

  6. They’re gorgeous! The Laramie senior center is awarding five QOV next Friday. It’s a first for the center, but I hope it becomes an annual event.

  9. 2 ladies at my last retreat were making jelly roll quilts. It would be cool for a whole group all doing the jelly roll race. I have a bag of strips and itching to do a jelly roll quilt now.

  12. Very fun and "racy" quilts. The additions of stars, eagles, etc, really adds to the look.
