Wow, all of these are so pretty, i am dying to try one! I just made a jelly roll race quilt, and one 40 piece jelly roll made a lap size quilt. I've seen some jelly roll patterns that say use two to 4 jelly rolls for a large quilt. So I would say plan on at least two. You don't want to get halfway through it and run out and then not be able to find more to match. This will be a very special quilt for your son and his new wife, they'll never forget what you've done for them.
I'm so happy for all your responses and pictures! I love all the quilts and know I have made the right decision on the pattern. I'm still surfing for jelly rolls, though. I want to match the decor and not make it super girly (flowers). They have a fall color theme, so I should have plenty of options. I think I will go with 3 jelly rolls (40 each or the equivalent) and another jelly roll for the inner sashing and then a larger border of a matching print (same print for the backing probably). I'm just so excited and glad to have plenty of time as my son just started a new job today and will not have time off for a while. I went online this weekend and purchased a walking foot and extender table for my machine, so I'll be ready to quilt as soon as the tops ready - now to shop for fabric!
Thanks to all!
