beginner quilt with a jelly roll and charm pack?

    beginner quilt with a jelly roll and charm pack?
    on: August 08, 2008, 01:14:43 PM
    Is there a pattern out there that would be good for a beginner quilter (I've done a few basic ones) that uses a jelly roll and a charm pack?

    i've just treated myself to one of each, but don't know what to do with them!!!

      Joelle Halverson has a lovely book full of quilting ideas--last minute quilted gifts--is the title.  You  might find something yummy in there.

        I just did a small quilt with charm pack, Disappearing Nine Patch, you sew nine squares together into a block, then cut block in half both ways turn two of the four little blocks around, the two diagonal from each other.  it scrambles up the block.  does this make sense?  It is easy and i used it with solids sashes to break up business.  Just yell out if you don't understand my directions.
        as far as the jelly rolls i am having trouble finding an idea that grabs me, you can do the log cabin design which requires strips.

          I did my first one for our new baby... I had a pattern, but did not end up using it... I talked about it on my blog and have some photos of it too!  I loved working with the jelly roll, I hope you do too!  Good luck!http://pattyeduffner.typepad.com/the_pattye_duffner_blog/2008/07/jelly-roll-done.html
