Thank you for a cute and quick quilt pattern.
I found that cutting the strips in half (22” vs 44”) before sewing the strip sets together helps eliminate the middle waviness plus you can get more variety in your block sets.
Maybe, just maybe, I'll be able to make this one!! Now, to watch the video 700 more times before I start! lol
Did you ever make it and if so how did it turn out? Trying to see if it really is that easy?
That's me too!! 😂
I'm making it right now, and it really is that easy. The pattern is great. No seams to really match. And her tutorial is awesome and easy to follow!!
I'm right there with you!! 🤣🤣
Great tips about not using the middle and always lining up with the seam in the middle. I feel like I’m going to have straighter quilts from now on. Thank you for the pattern!! ❤🎉❤
Highly recommend. I just completed this quilt using 'adel in autumn' jelly roll, half metre of olive stripes for binding and the backing set of 'fall gatherings' from fat quarter shop. I'm not an expert but found this easy to follow using a combination of this video and downloading the pattern. I wanted to use all the fabric in the jelly roll so I did 7 by 7 squares instead of 6 by 7 in the video and even had enough left to make a 'quillow' the size of a standard pillow case to store my quilt in. Delighted.
This is going to be my FIRST quilt! Thank you for the great tutorial!
No one ever explained to be about the wavy middle!!!! Thank you so much. Now I know wi cut from each end.
I too love this. So quick & Pretty. Thank You Kimberly.
This pattern is great for a gift! Quick, fun and easy. Thank you FQS! 💜👍
I love this. Combining a jelly roll with a charm set. Perfect.
This is my next quilt with all my scraps can’t wait thank you Kimberly
Great new pattern and video tutorial. Thank You Kimberly!
Good Morning~ I love a quick, fun, and easy pattern~ tfs…Happy Monday All~ :)~
Great video it help me to decide what to do with my jelly roll, thanks. I’m just learning to quilt and this was simple and to the point
Love this!
Wonderful, quick project. Thanks
Just finished this in a baby quilt size! Turned out sooo cute! My first quilt top!
Hi! I'm wanting to do this is baby quilt size. Can you tell me how you adjusted to make it smaller? Did you just use less blocks across and down?
Thanks. I love this!!!
It looks beautiful and simple to make.
Thanks !!! Always love your video's
I am almost done with this quilt and I love it. I even used the same fabric collection, along with American Jane's Bread and Butter. Your tutorial and pattern made this a pretty easy project. Thank you!
Love this pattern🤗❤️
Love it! Thank you for the free pattern and tutorial.
This is a really great impromptu quilt. I really love FQS
Such a cute easy quilt. Thanks for the pattern
Great Idea I was looking for a quick quilt and this is just perfect
I love your tutorials. Thank you for sharing. I am working on this pattern.
Awesome, cant wait to make one
I would suggest that the seams that connect to the white block be pressed away from the block to avoid a shadow of the seam allowance.
Love this. Will try it soon.
I totally want to try this! I just made my first quilt with my own random fabrics, which was okay but I quickly decided next time I want to use pre cuts like jelly rolls! LOL Will definitely be trying this pattern! And that fabric is gorgeous!
ahh kimberly Ive missed you. I think your so neat and clear on your videos. please make more, I hv watched ALL of you fqs videos. new granddaughter that tgis would be great and simple.. already doing the mini mocha charm quilt... thanks
Wait...what? Free pattern? I love free! Thank you :) Going to get mine. I have just the jelly roll in mind and happen to have a white charm pack just waiting for a cute pattern. Thanks again, ladies.
I'm new at sewing and have completed the jelly roll jam quilt, and the jelly roll 2...... Completing a quilt had been a dream of mine and thanks to these videos I found the confidence to do it. Thanks 👍😊
What a great video. I just found you and I LOVED this. I'm so going to give this a try.
Want to try this!
Just finished one of these quilts, very cute quilt, fast to make and the only seams to match are when sewing the rows. Thanks Kimberly!
Super easy! Thanks.
Fast video, fast method and both are great. Happy Easter and thank you.
I will try this ❤️
Im going to try this tomorrow. Thank you
so excited to try this for my first quilt :)))
I'm making a quilt for daughter's friend in high school, who is a boy. It's difficult to make a quilt for a guy because a lot of quilts have patterns like stars and are more feminine. Also, for this quilt, I'm using their school colors which are red, white and black so I'm limited to patterns. I've been searching for ideas beyond just squares, so I think this one will look good. I was thinking about red and white 4 block squares with black searching but this might be easier because I love jelly rolls, even if I have to cut 100 strips of fabric. May try this out. Oh, also, he's very tall. EEK. But, he's my daughter's best friend and she wanted something to give him that represents his personality. Thank you for this. I've followed some of your other patterns in the past and have loved them.
Beautiful
nice vedio and your way of presentation is always great, thanks for sharing
Wow So Funny, wishing you a wonderful day, Blessings and Greetings 🌹🌷🌺
Well I'm not much of a social media person so no hashtags on this quilt top but I did make this quilt and it turned out beautifully. I made it in Prarie Dreams! Beautiful. Thank you for the pattern. It was perfect for a weekend project.
Thank you for a lovely and quick project. BJ
Awesomeness
I’m making one right now!!!
I needed something quick and easy for a baby quilt - this is perfect! Thx!
How did you size down for a baby quilt?
@@sonjadennin4012 I am wondering the same thing! I'd like to size down
Still a fantastic pattern & video!!
Hi you are the best beacause i am french i beegin and whit you i understand everything tank you so much
Love how you include the aurafil thread number
I never really understood the wavy in the middle thing. But now that I have finished cutting my strips, I can see that, yes, it gets wavy in the middle. Great pattern. Great video. Thank you.
Fabric is folded on bolt....so even jelly rolls came from a bolt at some point and still have a fold which creates a bit of a wave. Often it does not matter.
What a great baby quilt project.
line up the jelly roll to a line on the mat....then use ruler for measurements....i can always use the middle! lol
Cutting strips on the lengthwise grain will help eliminate the wavy problem. Also, be sure the strips are straight when you press them.
Nice job, I would like you to do something with 5 "squares, I have some that were given to me and I don't know what to do. Thanks greetings from Peru.
I will see about doing this
Forgot to say! I have jelly roll Poetry, plus the white charm. thanks.
when your strips get wavy, I heard you can "re-iron" your piece to straighten it out!
Rhonda, if the strip does not get stretched in the handling, it won't get wavy. Careful handling is the key.
I've made two of these tops and love this pattern! I plan on adding borders to mine though. I was wondering if you have any ideas about using up the leftover pieces? For the one I'm going incorporate them into a pieced backing but I need some creative way to use them. I plan on doing more of these and I think I'll cut a few more 5" squares and make another row or two.
Do you trim your 5" squares? The two Jelly Rolls come to 4 1/2" and I don't see anything in the instructions to trim the 5" squares to 4 1/2???
I found it! Go to the FQS site and search free quilt patterns. Click on watch this video now- of the jellyroll twist. Up pops the pattern and not the video.
using steam stretches the fabric
I have been searching and searching for a pattern to use my Hop, Skip and a Jump Jelly Roll, and i am so glad I found your tutorial! Thanks you so much! Other than white, what other color would look good as the plain center piece,using the same Jelly Roll? (I actually have two of that Jelly Roll, and will make a Queen size quilt with them, but don't want to use white in it) Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Hi Lois! It really depends on the look you’re going for. I’d suggest using a
print from the Hop, Skip and Jump collection here: www.fatquartershop.com/moda-fabric/hope-skip-and-a-jump-american-jane-moda-fabrics
or another print from the same designer here: www.fatquartershop.com/american-jane-moda-fabrics
That will make your quilt more scrappy looking. Also if you want to be
inspired by what other quilters have made, simply search for #JELLYROLLTWIST on
Instagram to see. Lots of fun options. Good luck!
Thanks for the reply and suggestions.. Checked online for those fabrics.. Wow Pricey! I will keeping searching for sales, and, I will find something! Thanks again!
I'm wanting to do make this quilt a little bit smaller. (Baby quilt size or a little bigger.) Would you recommend just using less blocks across and down? Maybe 4 across, 5 down?
I started this from a tutorial by Jenny at Missouri Quilts but was called the Two Step Quilt. My blocks did not turn out to be 9" because I think my needle was bent and my seams ended being between 1/4" - 3/8" . If I cut my long strip to match the total size of the square and two sewn strips, will this still look ok???
What would be the dimensions for a queen size quilt? I want to try this pattern, my first, but make it for a queen size bed. I would like a border and then the binding. Any suggestions? Thank you.
Hello! You will need 2 print Jelly Rolls and 2 Bella Solid Charm Packs to do this version. Follow the instructions, but double the stripsets and make 81 blocks. Make 9 rows with 9 blocks each. That will be 77" square unfinished. Add borders to the size you want the quilt to finish. I suggest to cut 4.5" wide borders on each side and that will finish at 84.5" square.
Neither the link posted or above work. I can't find the pattern at the FQS site either. I can find the kit, but not the pattern. What next? I'd really like to make this quilt.
Here is a link to the pattern: static.fatquartershop.com/media/wysiwyg/pdf/JellyRollTwist-Pattern.pdf all links are provided in the description of the videos and also on our Free Patterns page here: www.fatquartershop.com/free-quilt-patterns
hi... I really like your work. where will I get all this material stuff in Europe?
Diya Gajjar where do you buy jelly rolls in scotland
I love it, but very new! only 3weeks in.Can you tell me, when sewing the strips together, do i sew one light to one dark? thanks.
Good question, if you look at the finished quilt hanging behind Kimberly, you'll notice that the strips are contrasting colors, not ones of the same color family., not necessarily light/dark. Hope that answers your question. Good Luck
Thanks Janet, much appreciated.
Lola.
Hi Lola! Yes, as Janet mentioned, assemble the strips together as you would like.
Thanks so much, great to know there is advice out there.
Have started, and its not too bad, but room for improvement.
Love this, but maybe it's me, but I can't find the free pattern, couldn't find it through the video, but also searching on the FQS site only brings up the kit. Could you post the link please? Thanks
Hi Jane - if you check the description of the video you will find the link. Here it is: static.fatquartershop.com/media/wysiwyg/pdf/JellyRollTwist-Pattern.pdf
Jelly roll twist
I’m going to make me a quilt. Not for sure what you mean by wavy in the middle
Can you post a tutorial using the 20 pc jelly roll please? I have 2 different 20 pc jelly rolls
Thanks for the idea, we'll keep that in mind for future quilts!
Que tejidos estan incluidos en el kit Gracias por la respuesta
Aquí está un acoplamiento a nuestro kit del edredón: www.fatquartershop.com/jelly-roll-twist-quilt-kit En la descripción usted encontrará qué se incluye exactamente. ¡Gracias por ver!
I tried to make this and didn't follow the instructions properly - sewed some blocks together the wrong way. It still turned out really well but it was a much more random look to it.
Looks like I need a Jelly Roll! Once sewn together, are there finishing instructions available? I have never quilted before. Thank you
Hello Cheryl! Yes, we have finishing instructions in the pattern: www.fatquartershop.com/jelly-roll-twist-quilt We also have a video here that can help czcams.com/video/eGwffidHbWQ/video.html
@@FatQuarterShopTX Gosh!! Thank you so much!! My 2023 goal is to learn how to quilt. So excited!
Pattern link still doesn't work and I can't even find it with a search on the website. Help us! This is a really cute pattern.

How many would I use for a crib blanket
Hello Crystal! Here's a rough estimate: For 36" square quilt, use 14 JR Strips and 16 charm squares. Follow the instructions, cut 16 Long Pieces, cut 16 Short short pieces. Make 16 blocks. Arrange into 4 x 4 layout (4 rows of 4 blocks).
How big is this?
those strips are wavy because of thread tension and the way you're pressing and pulling.
+ Benji Graham - I think the steam is also a contributor to the waviness of those strip sets :-( Personally, I'd rather not use steam; it may take some more time in the pressing, but think it yields more successful results in accurate cutting and sewing.
I agree, I use a dry iron and starch to keep the material as flat as possible. I have just finished putting all my blocks together, didn't have any trouble with waviness, and am squaring them up.
Press. Do not iron strips. No smooshing the iron around. Set seams without steam. Steam in pressing is overrated. It tends to stretch the fabric.
my two 5 inch pieces were shorter than the 9 in what did I do wrong
Mine were also! I thought it was just me. The measurements do not work out. Thanks for this reply! I just had to trim a small piece off of each square. 😩
Me too- I double checked the video and pattern instructions, did the math again, I think my seams are too skinny. My jelly roll strips have a scalloped edge which has put me askew. Will block as best I can then maybe trim to square up before I assemble to top.
what size of quilt does it make?
51 1/2 “ x 60” but we offer this pattern with more size options too!
I am attempting my first quilt. Was going to try this pattern but smaller scale since my jelly roll only contains 20 strips. I'm thinking it won't look good since the pattern will repeat too often. HELP! Would appreciate feedback from someone with quilting experience as to whether this pattern would work with a jelly roll containing 20 strips (5 designs - 4 each)? Thanks.
What is finished size please?
Hello Audrey! The finished size is 51.5" x 60".
Finished size plz?
Hello Gena! The finished size is 51.5" 60" you can find more information in the pattern here: www.fatquartershop.com/jelly-roll-twist-quilt
@@FatQuarterShopTX awesome!! The perfect throw size!!

Music off would work better
