I thought the same thing. I often think what sad, miserable lives these people must lead when they have nothing better to do than to put a negative comment or a thumbs down on a tutorial meant to help people do something or make something, especially as clear and well presented as this tutorial is. I doubt they even watched it- just going from video to video leaving a thumbs down. Wish KZread would crack down on people who leave too many negatives or at least limit the number you can leave in a given time to discourage these trolls, but I doubt that will happen. Makes me feel bad for the creators of such helpful content. Great tutorial! Looking forward to seeing more.

Unfortunately, people will always be negative when they don't get exactly what they want. I imagine instead of appreciating the wonderful tutorial we've been gifted, those people decided to be upset that she didn't provide details from a pattern that wasn't hers to share. Because they're children. Who want to act like brats.

Erica, you are the only fabric tutorial I have been able to watch all the way through. Most people infuriate me with excessive information in all directions, but you stayed focused and very straight forward. This is how I would have taught myself. LOL Thank You!

I've been sewing for 50 years, and I think a rug is about the only thing I haven't made. I'm definitely going to try this. This video was really informative and well done.

me too long time career in alterations/tailoring...etc... making quilts now... but today I saw this quilt and what they sell for... I got to make one now

I have stuck a seam ripper into a spool of thread, leaving sharp side up and used it like your nifty thread cutter. Worked well.

After watching (1/2 way through), I find her style lovely. Clear, easy instructions. Very articulate. And her peaceful demeanor is enticing.

You are so right! I don't leave down thumbs but I'm pretty stubborn about video content. I hate presenters who haven't planned a presentation, ones who apologize for various failings, ones who drone on about their hubbies, kids, or pets (we are your students/clients, not your friends!), and ones who appear as if they just tumbled out of bed. I guess that eliminates a LOT of presenters but that's how we get the good ones. One day, I expect, we won't have every Tom, Dick, and Henrietta blathering on (badly). We will, hopefully, have the best, the professionals who teach, not everyone who wastes our time flipping through videos to learn what we wanted to learn in the first place. Btw, this young lady is a fine presenter. Thumbs down ppl must not like blondes. NO reasonable explanation otherwise!😏

LOVE how you present! You don't take forever to say something and it moves along very nicely! THANK YOU!! :)

Of all the sewing video’s on KZread, your channel is one of my favorites. Your quilts and projects are absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for the inspiration.

I have a longarm business and end up with LOTS of leftover batting scraps (especially long strips). Now I know what to do with them! Great tutorial and I LOVE your sewing room.

Beautiful rug. My great aunt used to have them around her home. I loved them when I would visit her. This reminds me of a special part of my childhood. Thank you for sharing! 😘

My mom is a quilter, and I always want her to teach me how to sew....anything!! This tutorial actually made me think I might be able to?? I LOVED this rug!!! Thank you for making it look so easy!!!

Just purchased Roma's pattern for her jelly roll rug. This is the first time I've done a project such as this. Erica, you did a wonderful job on your tutorial. Very easy to follow and understand. Thank you so much!

Great tutorials. You give concise, clear instructions and I don’t get bored. There’s no need to skip forward or anything!!

I just finished my first jelly roll rug. I didn't use a jelly roll and made it smaller than the pattern size. I used a different approach as I didn't know how much fabric I was going to use of each color. It was a learn and sew as you go. I love my rug...want to make two more. You have the best sewing/quilt channel. Thank you, Lynne

❤loved how precise and methodical the directions were, as well as the photography showing exactly how it’s done. I took a class to make a jelly roll blanket a couple of years ago and was overwhelmed by the steps that were counterintuitive to me like cutting on the diagonal, sewing all the strips together WITHOUT cutting between each one…and the repetitive- ness. I didn’t bother to make the blanket. This was very refreshingly done and making the whole process so much more manageable for me. It made sense…but now I need a rug. So I’m hung-ho again. Great job! Thanks 👏🏼

I am not at all sure why I was having a problem starting my rug. I thought I was confused, but apparently I had it right all along. Thank you for teaming up with Roma to do this tutorial. Can't wait to get started on my rug...turquoise, orange and black batiks to match the quilt I'm making for my son and daughter-in-law.

Super easy!!! My grandmother used to make her scrappy rugs by hand. Learned how to do this 40 years ago.

I have been wanting to make a jelly roll rug for years but was afraid I would make mistakes and end up with a mess. Thank goodness for this young lady and her excellent job of explaining every step. I am thrilled to be sewing my first jelly roll rug! KUDOS young lady!!!!!

I have watched this about a 1000 times. I am a beginner and am having a hard time with the pattern instructions, particularly going around the curve. Watching your video has really helped me! Thanks!

After seeing this tutorial a week ago, I was able to buy the roll of batting in a 50 yard package. I bought 2 of them, not realizing how much was on each roll until I got home. I also bought Roma's pattern. So I have enough for 2 rugs! YAY! I might make one for my sister. She doesn't sew and will be amazed when I tell her I made it. I also have 2 jelly rolls I bought on sale that I didn't need at the time. I'm so happy I bought them! I'm a new subscriber to your channel as of right now!

Excellent video! I took a class on this years ago and gave up, but your clear, detailed explanations have inspired me to start again and get a rug done! Thank you! You are an excellent presenter- focused, organized, giving options and explaining everything clearly! Also bravo to the camera work showing details!

I am so happy I found your channel and I have been binge watching it like Netflix today. This video is helping me immensely with making my jelly roll rug. I am new to quilting and have been on the struggle bus with reading the pattern. I am more of a visual learner and this tutorial is a god send! Thank you!

I took a jelly roll rug class several years ago and made a lovely rug. But I've forgotten some of the techniques. This tutorial was just THE ticket! She helped me remember EVERYTHING from my class, including some of the things to watch out for. Will be making another one as soon as the weather keeps me from going outside during my second Covid winter. Looking forward to sewing again! 9/8/2020

great lesson, your sewing room is so pretty and your hair is gorgeous! I braided wool rugs about 35 years ago, dyed the wool also, never thought I'd be doing this again. Thanks for the inspiration. New subscriber!

It's a Saturday morning, I'm thumbing through KZread and I come upon this jelly roll tutorial. I don't do rugs but I'm drawn in by two things. The cabby chic look of the rug and the refreshing delivery of the instructors directions. She's quick, without losing us. The instructions are clear. The finished product makes me want to whip up a jelly roll rug right now. Thanks. Another project I shouldn't be doing but will love.

I remember my grandma used to make these for their home by hand, wish I learned more stuff from her while she was still alive. Great to see this tutorial on KZread

Same. I watched my grandma make rugs with cloth strips. I can’t really remember exactly how she did it but they were wonderful. Thick and laid flat. Nice to stand on.

Great tutorial. My granddaughter is coming over to make this rug this evening and staying through Sunday afternoon. I’m glad I found this tutorial. Thank you so much for making it 👑

Oh my gosh, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this tutorial!! Definitely going to try this very soon. Thanks so much for the awesome video and explaining it in a way that makes it look doable even for someone who's new to quilting. ❣️

I luuuve this tutorial! How refreshing that the instructor isn’t harping about keeping measurements to the 10th of an inch. Quilting should be fun, and her attitude keeps the student from being intimidated. That’s what seam rippers are for-doesn’t work? Tear it out and fix it. No fear! You are mistress of your project.

Thank you Erica for the Jelly Roll Rug tutorial. My granddaughter and I made the rug following your instructions. We had a lot of fun! It did take a long time to sew the strips--whew! Our rugs turned out beautiful! I'm already planning to make another one with my 2.5" scrap stripes this time. Love our rugs!

Oh wow, adorable Erica!!! Also love how you told us your sewing machine make and models as well as your table. And looooooove your sewing room!!! I have made the one you tie with scraps that was fun way back in the 1980s - I am putting this on my list just too cute! Thank you for sharing!!! 💗🎄💗

Hi! Couldn’t sleep tonight and stumbled across your channel and this video! Omgosh!!!! I thoroughly enjoyed your tutorial and am so very inspired to make this beautiful, happy looking rug! Thank you very much for going to the trouble and the time to teach us how to sew this! Blessings to you and your awesome channel!!!

I love that I can come back for a refresher when doing another rug. Thank you so much, again and again. 💗💗💗

I absolutely loved this tutorial. I was able to find reasonablely priced jelly roll bundles at Joann's and made a gorgeous rug just in time for Christmas! I absolutely love the nostalgia and the texture of this rug!

The rug is sooo pretty. What a great tutorial. Very clear on the directions and tips. I would love to make one of these rugs. You could make it pretty, or really country or scrappy. Limitless possibilities.

Thank you so much for this tutorial! It gave me the confidence to do this project. I'm so happy with how it turned out and can't wait to do another!

what a fabulous tutorial/video, you get the information, the tempo/speed, instructions, hints & tips etc etc, JUST right so enjoyed & learned from you, thanks so much xxx

Beautiful...my grandmother used to make rugs like this by hand. Great instructions.

Love the rug and video. You are an awesome teacher and explain things so they are easy to understand!

I am definitely going to make this. I have all the supplies especially to do this. She made it looks easy and gave good tips. I'm anxious to get started

You explain so well! I bought all the supplies and will try making it. You make it seem easy-hopefully it is. Keep making tutorials, they’re great ❤️

Wonderful tutorial for those who know how to sew! I am soon to be a grandma and this is working wonders for me:) Thank you again!

Can’t wait to try it!!! Such pretty colors you chose. Edit to add that I love the speed at which you explained it all and wasn’t dragged out at all.

This is awesome! I’m so glad I found this, I’ll be moving into a new apartment in a few weeks, and this will be a real brightened!

These rugs are just beautiful! I just ordered the book and I think this is what my family will be getting for Christmas.

I love how organized your sewing room is. I have a sewing corner (2 bedroom apartment, but someday it’ll be a room!) and I keep it neat and tidy as well. I don’t think I’d get all my projects done if it wasn’t organized 😂 great tutorial! Thank you!

Wow! Both of your rugs are gorgeous. Love Bonnie and Camille fabric. Thanks to you and Roma for allowing this tutorial. You are such an amazing teacher. I learn so much from you. Just watching you sew this helps so much to understand how it comes together. I may make a coaster or mug rug to begin with to get the feel of it before attempting this project. Again, thanks to both of you. The tips really does help. Happy Week! 🌸🦋🌸 🌼🐝🌼

Thank you so much, that was super clear and I can't wait to get started! I love the color pattern of your rug!

You are a great teacher. Simple and complete instruction. This video was super helpful. Looking forward to your next one

Love the tutorial. They do make a very nice tip that you can use that actually turns the fabric in for you so you don’t have to use all the clips. What a GREAT tutorial though and I LOVE how detailed this was and thank her for this great video 💞💞💞

Thank you, this was a great video. I recently purchased the Sailrite Deluxe Fabricator industrial sewing machines to repair our houseboat canvases, do a new rear deck enclosure, and to make deck canvases here at our homestead/mini-farm. I heard about jelly roll rugs and thought they would be a great addition to our sustainable house remodel; my old art studio. David and I are both artisans, so everything in this house is 100% handmade. My new Sailrite machine will sew the jelly roll tubes with ease and accuracy. I'm going to experiment with it and attempt a bit of a twist; overlapping the strips and connecting them with a straight stitch, instead of a zigzag stitch. Fun abounds!

Thank you so much for the GREAT tutorial! Maybe this 72 year old will give it a shot. BEAUTIFUL colors too.😊 👍

Beautiful Rug - Great Tutorial! Thank You! 😊❤️✌️

Очень красиво!!! Умница,красавица и рукодельница!!!💕💐

Wow! This is a GREAT tutorial! Thank you so much for taking the time to show us how it's done! You make it look so easy! Hopefully, someday, I can make one of these rugs as well!!!

This is a great tutorial, thank you so much. I did find that the way you have your tube laid the way you do is best, with the puffy side out because it stays flatter. Beautiful and informative as always 💗

No that's her sewining room. She said it in beginning. She also said she would share the info she could. If she gave every detail about pattern that was created by someone else. She made contact with them first and gave her limited permission. It's a rug not rocket science. The amazon bundle I do believe comes with pattern and 2 batting roll. I have jelly rolls and enough fabric to make my own.

Even so you can do what I have Done is take a bookshelf( billys IKEA) with seethrough Doors and have my fabrics on those shelves sorted by colours like 2-3 colours on each shelf like pink on the left red in the middle and orange/yellow on the right depending on how much you have. and then I have seasonal fabrics in one or two seethrough plastic bins. And on the bottomshelf I have smaller bins for the crumbs and they are also colour spesific like I have around 10 2-4 litre bins for my crumbs. Having everything sorted by colour and seasonal helps a lot. But if you have a lot of panels, charm packs or jellyrolls you might need a seperate display for that. Having everything in seethrough storage helps a lot for me to feel inspired and makes it easy to find what I need.

That is some of the cutest fabric. !!!

You are an excellent teacher, and your rug is beautiful! I’m not a sewer, (would like to be) but I so enjoyed your video! Thank you 😊👍

You can get a good iron at a thrift store I was suprised at how much an iron was. I got one for less than $5.00 for crafting only at the thrift store

I bought the pattern a couple of weeks ago. I didn't know that you could get those wadding strips - very handy. Thanks for a great helpful video but yes, let's hope people support Roma by buying the pattern as well

I haven't seen in many years but this tutorial make me want to start again. I thought this was a great tutorial . Easy to follow and understand. Thanks

I always liked those rugs in the 70's, but I wasn't crazy about the colors. Your rugs were really cute. This was inspirational, giving me some ideas for my next apartment.

I loved watching you make this jelly roll rug mostly because I love B&C vintage picnic as I recently bought all the materials to make Summerville. I was waiting for the end so I could see the rug in all its vintage picnic glory, but that never happened :( The one you showed is lovely, but it would be nice if we could see the actual item you made. Love your videos. I am subscribed and watch you all the time.
