    Default need inspiration

    I have two charm packs and one jelly roll. I need to make a quilt for a wedding gift.

    Give me a special pattern I can use. My brain is mush and I can not think of what pattern to use.

    thanks

    It you know the name of your fabric line........try doing a search on pinterest of those fabrics as quilts and see what comes up.

    That usually helps me when I need ideas.

    there is one called Jewels in the curio, by Jo Kramer @ moda bakeshop I have been eyeing up. looks kinda like a Jacobs ladder pattern.

    Also, there must be a bento box pattern that would use a charm in the centre, jelly rolls around, and cut in four

    One Jelly Roll + yardage can give you many options. How big a quilt do you have in mind?

    I found it... bento box in Jenny's tutorials is called chopped block, if you are interested. charm packs and jelly rolls, you could use light and dark, rather than white and color if you prefer

    Here are two charm and JR patterns that I have saved to my online folder.

    Also, I don't know where I found these pics but the first quilt calls for two charm packs, the second is charm packs but perhaps instead of white you could use the JR?

    Jenny's Serendipity tutorial calls for charm packs and jelly rolls. However, I was not able to decipher how many of each she used.
