I did make a jelly roll race quilt top but it is just a WIP 🚧 now. I should finish it… I love the fabrics you chose and I love the fact that your jelly roll race is really broken up because of the shortness of the fat quarters. I like that much better than the original way. It seems more pleasing to the eye. Thank you for the video and I’d love to see more.❤️
I was wondering about the two rows of diagonal seam tape. That’s a clever idea for sewing the second 1/2” seam. I love the two different widths of the strips.
I had been wondering how this pattern would look done with fat quarters. Really turned out beautiful! Using different width strips adds a nice touch of originality.
Ive made jelly roll race long ago . I live how you mention. Fat Quarters needs their own race too!!! 😂😂😂 and I agree!! This is beautiful!!!! Hope you’re feeling better!!!
I love how you were able to bring it up a notch by varying the width of the strips and mitering the joins. Lovely. I will definitely be trying this one.
Fallon, this is such a beautiful quilt. I love the mitered edges. I have a fat quarter bundle of Japanese fabrics that I think would work perfectly with this. Brilliant idea to use use fat quarters in place of the jelly roll strips. I’m looking forward to trying this. ❤
Just finished this quilt top. Absolutely love it. Although I think I need to mix my strips up more, but regardless, I love it!! Can't wait to do another one! Thanks Fallon 👍
I’m so glad you enjoyed making it! It’s such a fun quilt to sew! I should have mixed mine up more too, but there can be fun in just leaving it up to chance too!
This is a great idea! You're so creative! I said a couple of years ago that you should go into quilt design, I was right. I always like the mitered look, but your straight method with your Scandinavian fabrics is so beautiful! It's perfect for that fabric. Thanks so much for sharing this. 😊
Yes I'm going to make this. Have a number of fat quarters that I purchased many years ago because I like the colors but they really didn't go together. Now they will.
I love the jelly roll race and did it for a king sized bed. I did it in thirds. I love this idea, but especially love the different widths if strips you've used. I'll be making a few charity quilts again this year and this would be a perfect way to knock out more than normal. Not to mention knocking down some of my stash. Thanks Fallon!
New subscriber here. I've been watching your channel lately and have really been enjoying what you have been doing. I plan to do this quilt as I'm a beginner and feel I can accomplish this. Thanks for the video and keep up the good work !
Thanks for this tutorial! I have a few orphan fat quarters that would be happy to be included in this quilt. It would be lovely to donate! I love your technique as I am a fairly beginner quilter.
I’ve made one so far. It was so rewarding. Not only is it easy but it’s also mindless,😂. Planning on doing another with a day of the dead strips. Not sure about the miter ends, I’ll see how you do it first before deciding. 😊
Love this idea. I have “tons” of fat quarters that I need to use and didn’t want to spend too much time cutting. What was the dimensions of your quilt with the 12 fat quarters?
I was searching thru comments about the dimensions also !! Thanks Fallon for all the new quilts your sharing, loving them & hope to give them a try soon !! 😂❤
I had the strips all cut out. Three weeks ago. I sat down today to finish the quilt but for some reason could not pull You Tube up on the computer in my sewing room. So I sewed the strips end to end but not 2.5" to 3.5" to 2.5 ". I sewed a 2.5" to a 3.5 twice and ended up with 2 2.5 " strips. At that I point quit sewing sewing for the day. I came upstairs and found you fine on this computer.. It is going to be interesting to see what I end up with. Not wrong just another variation of a fat quarter race.
A pdf listing fabric quantities for end quillt sizes needed is something I would pay $$ for, hint hint, lol. Your varying the strip widths and staggered miters add pizzazz for fast stash quilts for gift or charity, IMHO. Thanks in advance if you do such a project.
I have done several jelly roll race quilts. Love the different widths you’re using. I’m not sure why but my eyes prefer the straight seams. But it does seem that most people prefer diagonal.
If you cut off rectangles (you need 2 seam allowances together for the triangles) first from the ends of one stack of 2 1/2" strips, or just half of each stack , to make 2 1/2" hsts, 2×each, you could make hsts to put on the ends and get a straight edge, fancy joiner, and alternate the strip lengths as you sew, to make it more random. Cut one straight strip in half, put it on the other end of same one, andoff you go.
These look great! I was thinking of making a jelly roll quilt with yardage and then realized I have mostly fat quarters and not WOF 😅 How big are the finished quilt tops?
I'm new to this channel, and have only watched a couple videos. As much as I enjoy them, I'm not hearing what the finished size is when you get the tops done. I hope I didn't miss this information on both tutorials 🤞. Could you let me know the finished size on the race quilt? I'd love to try it ❤ Thanks so much
I have done jelly roll races in the past. I recently obtained 50 fat quarters at an estate sale. This is perfect! Glad I found your video! Thanks!
Very pretty. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! 😊
The Simple Folded Corners Ruler by Doug Leko makes sewing the diagonal so fast and accurate.
Love the name of this quilt!!!
Great Job Fallon🎉🎊
Thank you! 😊
I'm so glad you did this... i LOVE JRQ's and have so many FQ's to use up!
Ive done the jellyroll race, hadn’t even considered fat quarters. Will totally consider this when I need a quilt idea and have gone blank 😊
I love your quilts, you are a very good teacher thank you.
Thank you so much! That is so kind of you to say!
I like your version. I made one out of blue Jean strips and my husband white uniform pants. I backed it with flannel and made it for a bed runner.
Oh I bet that turned out fabulous! Those colors sound beautiful.
Yes, Ive made several Jelly Roll Race Quilts :-D

I would love to hear what you think if you make it!
I really like how this turned out. Will definitely have to make one.
It’s such a fun and quick sew❤️🧵
Jelly Roll Race quilts are awesome. Great twist on this one!
Thank you!
Really liking this..I have sooo many fat quarters this would be a great way to use them up.

Thank you Kiki! I had so much fun making these!
Oh! I love ALL your quilts! I will do the mitered method with some modern prints. Thanks for the tutorial ❤
I would love to see how it looks in some
Modern fabric!
I love how you were able to bring it up a notch by varying the width of the strips and mitering the joins. Lovely. I will definitely be trying this one.
Thank you Connie! I would love to see your quilt!
I really like how the mitered corners look! Yes I plan on making one.
This looks like a fun quilt to make! Thanks for the tutorial!
You’re welcome?
It’s awesome
Thank you!
I had this idea in my brain a little while ago, but could not figure out what would happen. So very glad you posted and I will be doing this!
It really helps to actually see it made! Some of my visions just don’t work!
I also have a huge scrap collection, this will be great in an all one color way❤️
Totally! I would love to see a quilt made that way!
Excellent instructions and beautiful endings with your choices. ❤️👍🏼👍🏼
I have dinner a couple jelly roll race quilts. I love your version and I plan on making one.
I hope to see your finished quilt! ❤️
Fantastic job! I love this idea… especially with different widths of strips!
Thank you!
I love these quilts
Thank you!

I have made a couple of JRR’s! This looks cool...will need to try!
Thanks for watching!

Love these!
Thank you!
Love this variation, thanks for sharing!
You are so welcome!
I love this idea. Using different widths is brilliant. I am going to use this pattern definitely. Thank you.

Yes I'm going to make this. Have a number of fat quarters that I purchased many years ago because I like the colors but they really didn't go together. Now they will.
I am so happy this video helped you find a use for your fat quarters!
What a wonderful technique! I love this so much. It turned out beautifully! ❤
Thank you so much Kris!
I loved this demo! Such great instructions. I am going to try this!
Thank you Leslie!

I think the different widths really help add some extra interest!
That was fun!!!! Don't we all have TOO many fat quarters anyway?? haha Great idea 😊😊
I know I sure have too many!

The mitered ends aren't too hard, but it definitely takes a little more time.
Love this idea. I have “tons” of fat quarters that I need to use and didn’t want to spend too much time cutting. What was the dimensions of your quilt with the 12 fat quarters?
It was about 52-53" square for mine.
I was going to ask the same question. Great minds think alike. 😊
I was searching thru comments about the dimensions also !! Thanks Fallon for all the new quilts your sharing, loving them & hope to give them a try soon !! 😂❤
Beautiful as always😊
I make them when I want to piece, but not have to concentrate so much. I'm going to try your version.
I hope you have fun making this design!
Love it and easy thanks
Excellent, much fun
Jelly roll race is my favorite...I'm a newer quilter and it's not only easy it's great pra for practicing 1/4 inch seams 😆
I had the strips all cut out. Three weeks ago. I sat down today to finish the quilt but for some reason could not pull You Tube up on the computer in my sewing room. So I sewed the strips end to end but not 2.5" to 3.5" to 2.5 ". I sewed a 2.5" to a 3.5 twice and ended up with 2 2.5 " strips. At that I point quit sewing sewing for the day.

Fantastic idea 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 … Definitely gonna try it. What size did your quilts end up?
Mine came out to a square that measure about 52-53”
Yes I have
I have done several jelly roll race quilts. Love the different widths you’re using. I’m not sure why but my eyes prefer the straight seams. But it does seem that most people prefer diagonal.
It’s interesting how our eyes are all drawn to something different! The nice thing is the straight seam is so much easier to sew!
Love the pattern using different sized strips. Where did you find your flat iron?
Thank you. I purchased my iron on Amazon.
If you cut off rectangles (you need 2 seam allowances together for the triangles) first from the ends of one stack of 2 1/2" strips, or just half of each stack , to make 2 1/2" hsts, 2×each, you could make hsts to put on the ends and get a straight edge, fancy joiner, and alternate the strip lengths as you sew, to make it more random. Cut one straight strip in half, put it on the other end of same one, andoff you go.
Great idea thank you!
I love this idea, Fallon! If you use 12 FQ as you suggest, how large is the finished quilt top? Thanks!
Mine was about a square. 52-53”
@@sewbeitquilts Thanks!
I noticed on the mitered corner quilt top, you cut the strips shorter. What size did you cut them?
Did you change the order of the second set of 2.5" strips before you sewed them together?
Great question! I left them the same so that it was easier.
@@sewbeitquilts thanks, looking forward to trying this pattern.
Just watched. Could you use more fat quarters to make bigger. Thanks.
You definitely could!
I have made 2 jelly roll race quilts and one mile a minute quilt. It is very similar to a jelly roll race, but you use scrap 2.5" strips.
I never heard of a mile a minute quilt until Kris posted a tutorial on her channel sew the distance!
Can you tell me the finished dimensions on the quilt (without borders)? I’m looking forward to making this, thanks!
For me it was about 52-53” square.
Im about to embark on a journey of quilt making. How big is this quilt finished?
Mine came out to almost a square. 52”x52” give or take. I haven’t quilted and squared it yet.
What size is the finished quilt? Looking forward to making it soon.
These look great! I was thinking of making a jelly roll quilt with yardage and then realized I have mostly fat quarters and not WOF 😅 How big are the finished quilt tops?
What size did your quilts finish?
What size quilt do you get with 12 FQs? Id like to try this for Quilts of Valor but need it to be approx 60x80.
I'm new to this channel, and have only watched a couple videos. As much as I enjoy them, I'm not hearing what the finished size is when you get the tops done. I hope I didn't miss this information on both tutorials 🤞. Could you let me know the finished size on the race quilt? I'd love to try it ❤
Thanks so much
For me it was about 52-53” square.
What size is the quilt top?
I plan to do American king size quilt top. I bought materials in India... so how many meters will I require to make this quilt
What is the approximate finished size using the 12FQ?
Searching for that too. !!
I have.
They are such a fun quick sew! I hope you enjoyed my version using fat quarters.
