    Jelly roll stitch and slice

    How do you make sure the strips are not twisted when sewing the long sides together?

    I've wondered the same thing.... I just know I'd mess it up....

      Well for me it really didn't matter, when you get close to the end (the fold) you can just go ahead and cut it in half then finish sewing the 2 together.

        Does anyone have a picture of this quilt? I didn't see the Fons and Porter episode, and can't find a picture through google.

              DSCN9172 (Small).JPGThis is a throw I made, started out using a jelly roll then switched to some FQ and cut them but you get the idea of how it is.

                Same basic concept though. Just kind of weave it back and forth next to you as you sew, or in a container like a basket.

                  it doesn't matter if the fabric gets twisted.... you can adjust that as you are cutting the pieces

                      That is different than the Jelly Roll race. The Jelly roll race is simply a Jelly Roll. Is that white added appliqued? Or do you stop and add that in as you go?

                          on the first row, you cut your strip in half and add a square...add your next strip and add another square (every strip has a square at the end of it)

                            I didn't mean the squares, I was asking about the Chevron down the side, but I watched the video and see how they did it, not that you would catch me slicing one of my quilts down the side. Good on em I guess, But I am not doing that.

                              I would find it very nervewracking to cut a quilt and do that too!!! Although I like the outcome, I don't think I like the procedure!
