Thank you! 😊

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. 😊

The mitered ends aren't too hard, but it definitely takes a little more time.

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 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.

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.

What an Awesome idea!! I can’t wait to make one😊 Thank you for sharing!!

I hope you have fun making this design!

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 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.

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?

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.
