So I finally finished my first ever jelly roll quilt. I used a Moda Jelly roll "A Walk in the woods" and followed a online tutorial here
One Jelly roll was used and still has some left over to bind the edges - the perfect cot size
It was relatively easy - I still need to work on my exact cutting and sewing.
I backed the quilt with some minky which is lovely and soft, I read somewhere that it makes it a lot easier if you use some fabric spray then pin to quilt. It made the pinning process very easy as the fabric was not slipping around.
I used my walking foot to quilt but gave up with it half way through. Maybe it needs looking at but it stopped walking and was pulling on my fabric might need to read up to see what I did wrong or take it back to the sewing shop.
I machine bound the edges using this tutorial here
I think it looks great as long as you don't look too closely as my stitch in the ditch isn't too straight next time I might try free motion!!!
This has now been all wrapped up for my daughter for her first christmas.... I may have started a tradition
Now off to make the christmas pudding
Merry Christmas
