Athenas Puzzle By: Jean Romack, Wisconsin, USA This quilt was purchased as a kit and thankfully, all the strips were precut into 2.5″ strips.

It is gorgeous and she loves it Quilt size: width: 74" height: 89" |

Jelly Roll Quilt Along By: Mary Schuberg, California, USA This was a quilt done as a quilt-along from Moose on the Porch.

Mosaic By: CathyW, United Kingdom I cut all the marbled samples into 2.5″ squares to enhance the mosaic effect, and I think the black background really enhances the colours.

The Quilt of Insanity By: Ranch Wife, New Mexico, USA Last year I jumped in on Julie Herman’s (Jaybird Quilts) hexagon quilt along. I am a fairly new quilter-3 yrs & this was my first quilt along. I pieced the entire top and didn’t like it. My fabric no longer spoke to me so I ripped, & ripped, & ripped. I re-pieced it in a scrappy setting & love it! Quilt size: width: 67" height: 67" |
I love Punkin, love the colours.
The jelly roll quilt is beautiful as was the quilt you completed for my Grandson, Baby Ben.
To me, Jelly roll suggests pre-cut fabrics made for machine piecers… sewing lots of strips together by machine and sometimes re-cutting and sewing again.
These are not common in Japan but since I am a hand piecer, I might have missed seeing them.
Thank you kelly.
