A little tip I found - before you open your jelly roll with pinked edges, run a lint roller over both sides of the roll. It picks up quite a bit of the lint.

[@pickinstitches]

Thank you! I have the kids take them outside and shake them, and bonus it gets some energy out too:)

[@pamkahmann3833]

Consider using those extra blocks in a storage bag for the quilt. I started doing that for my quilts.

[@pickinstitches]

Love it! I think I'm going to make a nursery donation quilt with it:)

Hi im from South Africa
Can i use all my scrap strips to make this pattern

[@pickinstitches]

Yay! I love using up every bit of fabric!!

[@gigi4768]

Do you cut with both y our left and right ? I just found your channel. You are a great teacher.

[@pickinstitches]

I do! But carefully. I'm really right handed.
-Kelly

[@donnarichey144]

Will it shrink if you starch them? Just watched a video that showed with the 5 inch squares they shrunk 1/8th inch. Thank you.

[@pickinstitches]

Yes!! So be careful! The stach is worth it if you cansqueeze it in.
-Kelly

[@desleybartlett322]

[@julieking8066]

I missed the name of the Jelly roll? Love it so pretty ❤

[@pickinstitches]

Sweet Liberty - Moda. I was sad that it did not have more red, but once it was assembled the colors look great!!
-Kelly

[@legacyfarmmercantile1822]

Where did red strips run off to?

[@pickinstitches]

Right! But the finished quilt has enough red, however I was worries:)

[@SewWhittle]

What’s the purpose of starching?

[@pickinstitches]

Only helps to keep the fabric from stretching if tugged on to rough.

[@bitsnharry]

Also makes it easier to cut if it has some stiffness to it!

[@elizabethwilliams3267]

Also helps to stop fraying...

[@pickinstitches]

Yes, especially multiple layers!
-Kelly

[@dianasmith4267]
