Choose Your Jelly Roll Fabric

Start by selecting the jelly roll fabric that inspires you. Jelly rolls come in various colors and patterns, so it's essential to choose one that aligns with your vision for the quilt. Vintage & Vogue offers an extensive range of options, ensuring you’ll find the perfect mix that complements your style.

Pick a Jelly Roll Quilt Pattern

Once you have your jelly roll, the next step is to choose a jelly roll quilt pattern. There are many designs to choose from, ranging from simple to more complex. When selecting a pattern, consider your skill level and the time you want to invest in the project. Patterns that showcase the jelly roll strips effectively will highlight the beauty of your fabric choices.

Cutting and Arranging

Our jelly roll fabrics are pre-cut into 2.5-inch strips that are 41-44 inches long. After you've settled on a pattern, it’s time to cut your jelly roll strips according to the instructions. Once cut, arrange the strips in your desired order. Experiment with different configurations to find the layout that best suits your design vision.

Sewing Your Quilt Together

With your strips arranged, begin sewing them together using a quarter-inch seam allowance, as specified in your jelly roll quilt pattern. Press open your seams as you go to ensure clean lines. Once all your strips are sewn together, you’ll have a beautiful quilt top to layer with batting and backing.
