I call it... TOPSY TURVY TOPPER!

[@everydaypaper]

I’m not a quilter and sew a mask is as far as I can go, but I really enjoyed your videos. This project is inspiring and seems uncomplicated, I may give it a go one day. You are a great teacher, Donna!

[@petersfam2001]

Love this project. I think I would quilt as I sewed the strips down and maybe use some decorative stitches. Big fan of your tutorials.

[@d.s.friendly7616]

I can see making 2 of these. Leave one unbound and cut it into placemats. Add napkins made from more backing fabric and it is a terrific gift set for a housewarming, special birthday or holiday. That way, there is not a half a jelly roll left over.

[@cheriwilliams7001]

It's just beautiful. Looks like a starry night picaso.

[@nickibair999]

Donna, I just love to watch your videos. So much fun to see what you make and you make it easy enough to understand and do. Thank you :)

[@sadhanakarve9113]

Dona, I love the perfection & the binding tips

[@robinluther3617]

Great, fun, QUICK project, and using the 5 lb dumbell to hold the ruler is just brilliant! You've got yourself another subscriber! Thanks!

[@newbeequilter]

+ Robin Luther - I think the 5-lb dumbell is a great idea too!

[@jenihansen7201]

I have so many quilts that I want to make and since you have shown us, my buying loyalty goes to you when purchasing material. I had a big order, but had to pay house insurance last month. So the end of this month I can purchase material. Thank you so much for sharing

[@AiryAsh]

I love your old sewing machine! The heavy duty of it. All metal parts. Very impressed with the speed and power!

[@umekulsoom3998]

Wow so beautiful

[@mygeorge1951]

You're amazing! Gracias.

[@leadewitt5277]

I have been enjoying all of your tutorials. One of the tips I've enjoyed the most was using the weights. Genius! I'm teaching a 10 year old to sew and using that weight for her to hold the ruler down helps so much to keep fingers out of the way and control over the ruler. Thank you!

[@catherineengel4720]

I wish I had access to a long arm sewing machine. I would LOVE to watch you cut out all the jelly rolls and package them.

[@loue6563]

I'm so glad I found your site! U have watched been watching vids for two hours and I still don't want to stop. Thanks for all the great ideas and tips you give. I will definitely be making one of these. Decisions, Decisions lol.

[@TheBethoula]

I love this idea!

[@Ronibearable]

Ha ha, I get so jealous every time I see you use your Gammill/Statler stitcher! It's a dream machine for sure!

[@stormyg1945]

How big is your interfacing?

[@jodiradelet6131]

ohhhh my gosh. magnificent!!!!!! really love this project......ideas for christmas! ty so much. you make it look soooo easy!

[@denisepineda1788]

Neat project with lots of possible variations!

[@karinrerertluk4071]

Hi from Salzburg, Austria. Love your love for showing me how to quilt!

[@lucilleguerrini-burks2290]

This is a cute table topper....good job, Donna,,thank you again.🌸🎶🌸🎶🌸🎶

[@paulapower8505]

What a lovely piece! I have to say, I love batiks, more than any other fabric - just beautiful. x

[@aidamaizar3538]

Fantastic.......Greetings and Love from Switzerland........

[@marcellespeake4272]

This would be a great project to use up my leftover strips from other jelly roll projects. I tend to mix two or three jelly rolls in one project, then use others in the sets for another project. (Did Daybreak with Grunge, Moda Classic Solids and Fuji Batiks combined with Not Quite White fabric quarters.) After the two quilts, there were strips I did not know what to do with so I grouped them in colors I liked together to make table runners, but still ended up a number of nice greens that this project would be perfect for. Thank you so much for this. I have friends who like the colors I don't that would love something like this because they like more modern things than I do since they are younger. (I am 66.) Some of them do not sew. Love the idea of using the reverse side when you want something plainer. I do this with my Christmas runners - pieced side for display during the season, but the plainer side that still has a nice Christmas print for Christmas dinner. You are so aewsome, Lady!

[@elizabethyounkin9156]

Wednesday is my day off totally making this table runner Thanks for the inspiration

[@jordanfabrics8380]

It really is fun to make and I'm going to try some placemats next.

[@jodiemcmillen6055]

BAM!!! And your done! Love it! Sew easy and quick, love your tutorials 😀👍🏻

[@juliewerner9592]

Can't wait to give it a go with all my lovely scraps, Thanks so much for the great tutorial. Jules in Australia

[@jodiradelet6131]

ooohhhhh. a scrappy one.....love it!!!!! I'm sure it will look awesome....cheers from canada!

[@cazfromoz1]

Donna, Thank you very much for showing all of us viewers your fun and super quick way to make an abstract-style table-topper. Your tutorials are brilliant as well as inspirational - now I'm going to grab a jelly roll and start making one for MY table. BTW, I've recently bought a Shape Cut Plus ruler, which makes cutting strips of any widths so incredibly easy, fast and accurate. It may be worth you trying it...Hey, you know we're never to old to learn new tricks, eh! I'll keep watching your vids for more great ideas - cos I'm hooked! I'm so glad you remember me... lots of hugs from OZ! :)

[@Alaskaraised]

This is such a great idea! Definitely going to make one!

[@sylviapineda6717]

awesome, thanks, real beautiful, palm springs, ca.

YOU ROCK!!

[@karenhough8398]

You are always so amazing. Thanks for this tutorial.. 👍🏻

[@markayw]

Love your channel Donna, And Ladies I was thinking the same thing, if she made a quilt sandwich then when she got finished sewing it would already be quilted. Nice project though. Love the colors....great job Donna.

[@ramonaalfonso3202]

HELLO.THANK VERY MUCH TUTORIALS.

[@jeanjamieson9742]

This seems so easy I would get two jelly rolls a make a quilt size and vary my stitches 3 to 5 different kinds and repeat. Thanks, Peace n luv, Jean

[@debikelley3750]

I would also love this as a quilt but would you still do the backing?

[@jeanjamieson9742]

Yes Debi it will still need to be backed with your favorite solid cotton or flannel print. The options are limitless. Gr8 question thanks. Jean

[@jeanjamieson9742]

Yes Debi a backing is needed a flannel or cotton. I would use solid to help show my stitches, the possibilities are endless. Gr8 question. Jean

[@airaniveaoliveira5652]

Lindo trabalho!Parabéns!

[@jljohnson1949]

REALLY NICE - thanks for the tutorial!

[@jenihansen7201]

This is the BEST quilt ever. I love the colors and the way they sit. Can you tell me how I would make a Cal. King quilt out of the same fabric? How much jelly rolls I must have? And do you have this material?????

[@jordanfabrics8380]

We have a similar jelly roll here: jordanfabrics.com/products/hoffman-bali-batik-jelly-roll-2-1-2-inch-strip-set-jelly-roll-40-strips-cortez-2018 I am not exactly sure how I would do a king size, but you will need 4 or 5 jelly rolls.

[@angelesrabaneda6536]

[@dianedice]

Love this! What a wonderful idea. This is going on my to do list :)

[@MLucyLuna]

Beautiful work! Neat and profesional!

[@beckyezra1]

Beautiful

[@sarahcogan2144]

What about putting fusible web on the strips, then fusing to a base? Would the layers get too thick to quilt?

[@jordanfabrics8380]

It might be too thick - I have not tried that method. A spray on adhesive might work too.

[@robingee790]

I want to make this with placemats to match what do I need? I want the same colors that Jordan made.

[@deborahtorain-williams1608]

could you make a twin size quilt using the same method

[@connieking9873]

When you were sewing strips did you alternate up and down instead of sewing in one direction for all the strips so the top didn't go wonky?

[@melissarey2973]

Since you only use half of each strip, someone could make two and give the sister-runner to .... Well, their sister!

[@monarawles5832]

love it!!!

[@clombard7134]

Beautiful table runner. Thanks for this video. What was the Pellon fusible interfacing? I don't recall hearing the product number.

[@benitaj1276]

What size of fusible interfacing is needed?

[@lindaberryman2004]

Can you do a full size quilt???

[@mariavicente6787]

ADOREI, ficou maravilhoso !

[@marluciadomiciano3279]

Que maravilha seus tecidos nunca vi nada igual .....é um sonho onde eu moro não tem nada parecido 👍❤️😍vcs são demais

[@JacquiViljoen]

Smy cuppa tea fast but efficient. Thank you

[@conceicaosouza1465]

Trabalho maravilhoso!!

[@naomim5015]

Great idea! But I don't have a long arm; would have loved to see it all done on a regular sewing machine.

[@jordanfabrics8380]

You can easily quilt this size on a regular sewing machine. You can either stitch along some of the strips, or do an abstract design.

[@vanshellable]

Naomi M, you don't need a long arm, especially for this because it's such a compact size. Drop your feed dogs and practice your free motion quilting, or just quilt straight lines! I love this topper...!

[@Barbarateapot]

About how large was the finished piece? I'm wondering how large a piece on interfacing to start with?.

[@kankula]

Cut the strip diagonally from corner to opposite corner and you can get the same look using half the fabric.

[@joyceburrill2738]

Great idea! Would it work if you sandwiched it and quilted while you stitched them on?

[@Sharon-pb7so]

Joyce Burrill... I bet it would, the stitching would be really interesting.

[@Ronibearable]

I was thinking that too, do a stitch and flip, with the 3 layers already together. Then just trim and bind. I actually do a FMQ stich that is diag lines like that, they criss cross a bit and it's really cool looking. It's great for a boy quilt, so it would look awesome on the back of this TT.

[@joyceburrill2738]

Going to try it. Livinnpjs, I have the Juki TL 2010Q. You are right. It is an amazing machine. I've made 2 table toppers, one quilt top and quilting another one. I can't find a thing wrong with it. It's fast and sturdy and a beautiful straight stitch. I've wasted a lot of money on other machines because I get side tracked by the bells and whistles when all I want is perfect 1/4 inch. I finally found it. Happy days!

[@Ronibearable]

Joyce Burrill Funny you say found the perfect qtr inch seam. lol I just said a couple of days ago the same thing about the Juki.

[@ericabates5361]

Hello, what the Width of your Interfacing please? 💚 Erica x

[@cheronpimpinella2445]

What is the # of the pellon fusible that you using for the topsy turvy?

[@jenihansen7201]

Do you sell the fusing also?

[@anjalivalsangkar7229]

What we called for that white piece of material?

[@carolg.6838]

Pellon lightweight fusible interfacing is what she ironed the fabric pieces on. The other white that goes between the top and backing is the quilt batting.

[@beckyezra1]

Can you do it on the method quilt as you go?

[@Ronibearable]

I was thinking the same thing, do a flip and sew method, it would encase the raw edges.

[@jordanfabrics8380]

Yes, you can quilt as you go. You can also use fusible batting instead of interfacing.

[@jameswalker5273]

Jordan Fabrics sGreat job! You always amaze me. Keep up the good work. What kind and where did you get your snips and scissors? Thanks again! Jan Walker

[@AnnBuschoPhD]

Great video but I wish you had shown how to join the binding . That's where I always have trouble.

[@jordanfabrics8380]

[@marthabeimer8410]

Your sewing machine fascinates me. What brand is it and does it have zig zag or blanket stitch or any others. It sounds as if it will take off and fly. Sometimes I expect to see it do just that. You sew fast too. I am too wobbly to sew fast. Maybe a little green eye monster has crept in. Tee hee I enjoy your videos. Really though ... tell us about your machine.

[@christineharvey2328]

Do the edges fray

[@yadirajacob2974]

it won't fray?

[@jordanfabrics8380]

If you don't use Fray Check or an applique or zig-zag stitch it will fray. I designed it on purpose to fray as it gets used.

[@Bre-nr8hg]

A beautiful project but won't the seams unravel over time?

[@Bre-nr8hg]

fray was the word i was looking for lol

[@carolg.6838]

I wonder too. Batiks are tightly woven so maybe not as badly? I wouldn't mind some fraying but giving it as a gift to someone who doesn't sew, that person might not understand fraying. Edited: Donna of Jordan Fabrics answered this question a few comments down. She said it was designed to fray and would fray unless you used Fraycheck, zig zag, or applique.

[@marluciadomiciano3279]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@Thespaewife]

I like it but I don't think I'd try it, it's too wasteful of fabric, jelly rolls and fabric in general is really expensive in the UK, it can be £35 for a jelly roll here.

[@momkelso]

I like the idea and beauty of this project (thumbs up) but I can't help feeling all those beautiful batiks hiding in the layers ( thumbs down). I hope I can figure out a way to use this idea and not hide my expensive fabric.

[@jordanfabrics8380]

It isn't a particularly efficient use of the strips, but the method does make a really solid and heavy weight runner. It could almost be used as a throw rug - except I don't want to walk on it!

[@ritamays9758]

David

[@barbarakennelly2520]

Did not like this method. I don't like leaving raw edges exposed. Guess that is why I don't do a lot of applique.

[@patl869]

I don't care for raw edges either. You could satin stitch the edges instead of using a straight stitch. Nice opportunity to use decorative thread.
