Free Jelly Roll Patterns

Jelly Rolls are a great way to make a fast, fun, and easy strip quilt.  Even beginners can whip out a quilt easily.  Strip quilting is one of my favorite methods of making a quilt.

I like to buy Jelly Rolls online and at quilt shows, although at quilt shows all fabric can be really expensive but lets face it, fabric looks so pretty at a quilt show and it’s very hard to resist.

I like to cut strips of fabric out of small bits of left over fabric.  I have 3 drawers and separate different strip widths so I’m always ready to go.

Here’s a traditional Irish Chain quilt I made from my strip drawer.  I just love scrappy quilts.  The finished quilt here I call my “pride and joy”, it’s by far my favorite quilt, seeing it gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling.  This quilt lives on the back of my couch and my kids are always snuggling with it.  I used flannel on the back, so the quilt is extra warm.

Surprisingly the scrappy Irish Chain quilt above was extremely easy to make.  The pattern is from Blanche Young’s book, Tradition with a Twist, which is one of my MUST have books.  I’ve probably made at least 10 quilts from this book.  Last year I made the mistake of loaning my book to a person I really didn’t know very well and they kept my book!  I ended up picking up another copy.
