Jelly Roll Jamboree Quilt Pattern // TUTORIAL!

[@RoseJensen-pm1lj]

This was my first quilt ever, almost two years ago, with next to no instruction. Right off the bat, the jelly roll I bought was only 20 strips, so first lesson learned. Then I cut about half the wrong size, so second and third lessons learned. It came out beautiful anyway, and another lesson learned. It was gift for my mom who is living with chronic stage 4 cancer. It was all done and washed, ready to gift, and the day before, she mentioned she needed a new king size comforter.😮😮😮. Off came the binding, and another lesson learned to add additional borders! I'm about 20 quilts in, mostly for Project Linus, and almost two years later to the month, I have two Jelly Roll Jamboree tops in progress on my design walls, headed for Project Linus. Thank you Erica, for giving me the start of something wonderful!

I totally understand how you feel about jelly rolls, they are like a beautiful flower that you don’t want to mess with because you want us to stay beautiful forever. I am acquiring jelly rolls and I have used one so far. After watching your jelly roll quilt that you just made I want to make a jelly roll quilt just like it. Hmmm, I guess I’ll have to open a jelly roll won’t I 🤣. All kidding aside excellent tutorial I could listen to you and not want to pull my hair out so yes, I will follow you ❤️

[@patti-anngracia2791]

I love how you get right to the point and don't drag things out. You also make it look so easy to do all of it. Thank U. :P

[@elizabethgray3225]

I was looking for a quick and easy pattern for lap quilts, and this fits the bill! Thanks for your straightforward instructions. Appreciate it!

[@dporter-gage9907]

After seeing the snow, I am not going to complain about the rain here in Michigan. Making an entire quilt is the best way to sooth your mood. It is so cheerful!

[@gailacook5102]

The colors of this jelly roll quilt make me smile 😃 the borders and backing scream “here’s a bit more Joy‼️” This jelly roll is definitely eye candy 🤩

[@emarie7591]

Girl!!! You said scrumptious !!! I LOVE this video. So fun. I can’t wait for next weeks video. And before anybody gripes about how fast you go, because you do go fast, which I love... but some don’t. For those who don’t, I have a tip for you... just press pause⏸. And bonus tip- play the video to the end cuz the outtakes are hilarious!

[@erica_arndt]

Thank you so much!!

[@robinboserup478]

Yes so funnyxxoo

[@marieerickson9695]

I love your tutorial... I’ve had two jelly rolls for several years and this inspired me to unwrap one. I spent a couple of days thinking and finally I tossed them in the air and used the one that landed closest to me! The struggle is real!

[@carolg.6838]

You made me think back 50 years ago to the family table and deciding which piece of food to take. My dad would say, "Why don't you take the one closest to you?" I like how choosing the closest ones put the joy back into your project.

[@robinboserup478]

I love the jelly roll quilt. H plus l love your moms puppy!! Jacks is super jealous!! I love all of your videos!!! Sweet Pea too!! Love ya God bless all of you!!!❤❤❤

[@sandyheller5438]

Your cat is adorable. Love the quilt. Thank you.

[@lizzystitch4842]

This quilt is stunning! I slept under scrappy quilts made by my grandmother when I was young on the farm...made from scraps from Grandma's cotton dresses, flour sack, and novelty fabrics. I so love my jelly rolls...just like you!

[@debramiller9892]

You make it look so easy. I do appreciate how you explain each step in the quilting process

[@marisuejames3366]

Erica I love your sense of humour 💕

[@theresawhisenand2714]

You are adorable and make great, easy video's! For beginners you make this look very doable, which it really is. I want to get started now on a JellyRoll Jamboree quilt! Thank you Erica.

[@cynthiajones1461]

I've watched this several times. I just love this project.

[@linhdasagen6498]

Your videos are succinct, informative and beautiful!! Your fabric selections are my favorite!❤❤❤

[@joanmacleod1362]

I am back to quilting after nearly 25 years. I love your channel, your humour and your great information

[@sarahdrousseau]

This is amazing! And I'm so with you on hording Jelly Rolls and never unrolling them.

[@trudimcdonald927]

This is such a gorgeous quilt…. Absolutely beautiful fabric ❤

[@susangenry6497]

This will always be a fav tutorial of yours..so simple

[@gladystan1]

LOL I also ride that struggle bus! I have SO MANY jelly rolls. Some I have because I thought they were pretty; some because I had a pattern in mind. ALL are still rolled. 😂😂 This was such a fun video! Maybe after I mow lawn...🤔🤔🤔

[@maplelassuk]

I loved the introduction too...they are SO pretty!! This is a great tutorial, thank you, I'm wanting to make a baby one!

[@bruceteppo5200]

I love this quilt fast easy don’t have to think a lot plus went shopping yesterday and found a jelly roll from Camille and Bonnie and I’m so happy. Beth from Minnesota

[@CherryBlossomHill]

I have 4 jelly roll race quilt tops hanging in my closet that I didn’t know what to do with that have been in there for years, I think I can cut them down into individual separate blocks and piece them together with a left over white honey bin roll, thank you so much for this super great quick and easy idea!

[@jackiewilson4455]

Finished this quilt yesterday! Second quilt ever made. I chose to hand stitch the binding which is the look I prefer. Thanks for the great pattern and instructions.

[@straylight9916]

How wide was your binding strips?

[@americanladybug3354]

I can't believe how easy you make it look and its freaking perfect!

[@mike1968442]

Ugh, snow!!! Love your kitty helper.

[@kwilliams3162]

Thank you so much for being straight forward and to the point! I love your videos and I’m making this quick last minute baby quilt right now similar to yours thank u for your help

[@brandycavanagh4267]

I just finished my first ever quilt thanks to your tutorial. I even survived binding lol

[@junewrogg6137]

It's so difficult to open those beautiful jelly rolls!!!! But they are so fun!!!!! My husband was just telling me that PPL watch videos and don't subscribe, huh? Why? I want to find my favs in a instant. Thanks for the cheery video on a dreary day.

[@thewaldens90]

June ... I wonder if it's because "subscribe" tends to mean it costs money, like when you subscribe to a magazine. Perhaps Erica (and other KZbin hosts) need to say free subscription.

[@angelastoutenger7944]

Thanks for the tutorial. Love your Jelly Roll Jamboree quilt. You are right...it is so hard to unwrap a jelly roll. They always look so pretty sitting on the shelf but they do look pretty in a quilt too. See you next time.

[@rhondaoyakhire7046]

So pretty! I love how quickly this came together. Thanks for a great way to make quilts for my granddaughters!

[@haleyhautzinger7556]

I love Jax in the videos. Love love love him

[@melindatijerina3433]

Scrollen on you chanel this morning before going to work and the qulit looks before , and as a beginner in sewing , you have made it a step by step plan to make this is a day , but it would me a longer , thank you so much

[@tammymichael3521]

I absolutely love this! I’m so glad I found you!!!

[@erica_arndt]

Thank you so much!!

[@vedatobias1702]

Love this quilt !! The fabric made this quilt perfect!!! And lastly Jacks is so cute!!! I love his little face that showed up close in the camera. And he is a happy cat with his tail up. 😻

[@mandyflaniken1900]

I am going to try to make this quilt for my grand daughter with a Moda "The Sea and Me" jelly roll. The colors are so vibrant like yours. Yours is just adorable.

[@elizabethmika5090]

Beautiful rainy day project.

[@Girlyglo]

You are officially my favorite best friend. New subscriber.

[@nicoleewing1318]

Love, love, love this video! I have the same struggle with unwrapping jelly rolls. They look so pretty on my shelf and once you unwrap them, they can never be re-wrapped the same. And since they are starting to take over the cabinet a bit...I'm going to make this quilt next! I also love the fact that you are in the same state as I am. That blizzard was NUTS! We shoveled and 5 hours later it looks like we hadn't done a thing.

[@erica_arndt]

Wasn't it crazy? We shoveled several times and each time you couldn't even tell!

[@ruthwilson7451]

That looks like a very nice quilt Erica and of course you have Jack there helping you

[@dawndecesare2177]

I love precuts but, hate using them because they look so pretty in my hutch that I store them in. Glad I am not the only one to hoard them. LOL. Love this quilt so fresh and spring like.

[@brendawalkerrupel9732]

You are adorable and FUNNY! I look fwd to seeing more of your projects!!!!

[@AlishaArlene]

Your cat is so cute. Haha You can tell he's spoiled, sitting there, cleaning himself, laying on the quilt you're literally working on. 🤣🥰 Absolutely beautiful quilt, btw! The colors and fabric are gorgeous! 😍

[@WhirlyPearly]

This was absolutely the simplest way I’ve found to do this I’ve found yet. Thanks 😊

[@ritabrunetti381]

Hello Erica. Love the cat. Thanks for sharing your project using a jelly roll. Be well.

[@sarahmccarthy224]

You made that look so easy!! What a gorgeous quilt ❤️

[@rocheleking2498]

This was an awesome video! You made this process seem so easy. Thank you for sharing and I am looking forward to your next project!

[@pamketron]

Such a fun and pretty quilt. Love the fabric. Wow at the snow. Y’all got a lot. Jax is so funny. He waved bye to us with his tail at the end!!! Looking forward to seeing the pillow next time. Happy Week!

[@BeautifulOaks]

Thank you for showing the order of sewing. It made sense to a sewer with little experience.

[@debbiebrewington7635]

Love jelly-rolls! So glad I found your channel.

[@grams5580461]

Wow you got way more now than we did. I live in the mountains and we usually get a lot of snow. I loved this video. I have been trying to use up my Jelly rolls because I have a storage issue. I am so glad you put this out there. I know how easy it is to get attached to fabric, but sometimes we have to say goodbye. The quilt is so cute though.

[@DanielaRodriguez-uf3ko]

I've been wanting to dip my toe into quilting for some time and I think this is the perfect project for me-thank you!!

[@Persida_]

I think I might make this!!!!! You did a wonderful job on this!

[@puppiesfollowus]

I once again had KZbin turn my notification box off. Ugh. I knew I was missing you!!!!

[@beckymarchbank9512]

Love the quilt! Need to get my some jelly rolls! Thanks for sharing. I hope you get to see signs of spring soon!

[@carolannegoetz]

Loved your tutorial creating this Beautiful quilt Erica!! Can't wait to sew this one up!! Thanks so much!!

[@Joyce-uo1iu]

Love it! I’m going to give it a try for my first jelly roll quilt

[@janicesheppard2084]

Absolutely love this tutorial, I have a jelly roll that I’ve been keeping for that perfect quilt …. Tks so much for sharing 💕

[@mariafava8177]

You seriously cracked me up. The unwrapping of a jelly roll or any precuts is very painful for me. Especially from Moda. 💕

[@MarieH528]

I really enjoyed watching the process of cutting and sewing! Thank You for Sharing!

[@grandmalovesmebest]

Yes! Thats the way to do an instructional video.😙 I wanted to make the oval jelly roll rug but my hands just arent strong enough. So, i decided to make one with the strips made into blocks that turn in opposite directions (if i knew what that design was called, id have found you sooner!). Hadnt seen this style w sashing between blocks, but that will be even better. Thank you for teaching us. And thanks for not blathering on about your problems, your hubs, kids, and pets😥. REALLY appreciate it.🤗 Its December now so here's wishing you Happy Holidays and may your points all match in the coming new year.

[@Cherylpuckey]

You just amaze me....i am hoarding a jelly roll also by bonnie and Camille, i originally purchase to make your jelly roll rug....the struggle to decide is so real...thank you for another amazing tutorial....

[@chase4326]

That is so pretty!! Thank you very much!

[@theresamunro8004]

omg, I thought I was the only one that had a hard time unwrapping jelly rolls.... I am not alone!!!! lol

[@chrisb5391]

I love this quilt! Uncomplicated and straight forward! Of course, Jax had to clean off your camera lenses so we could see better😂

[@LADYSILVERWOLF028]

Love this pattern, thank you for sharing. I am not good at sewing but was looking for a simple pattern I could do. My mom works at a assisted living home. One of the residents is turning 100 next month. She has dementia, but is a sweet lady who loves going around singing jingle bells (all the time ..lol). I got some christmas theme jelly rolls that were deeply discounted last year. I am gonna use them to make her a quilt. Hopefully it makes her happy.

[@erica_arndt]

Oh what a great gift, I'm sure she will love it!

[@sandramolina7919]

Beautiful quilt. I’m going to make one with this pattern for my California king bed. Wish me luck. 🤞🏼

[@Katinkia]

Thanks for this Erica. I am going to make this next. I only had one jelly roll to worry about so I didn't mind unrolling it! I love your kitty.

[@carlenehall2979]

🤗 Such a pretty and easy quilt! Thank you Erica!

[@dominiquelautrette6272]

C’est trop beau! J’adore vos créations ! Je vais essayer de faire un patchwork sur ce modèle malgré le fait que je ne comprends pas votre langue je vais me débrouiller avec le tuto Merci pour ce que vous faites c’est génial Dominique

[@dianestadtmiller8643]

I just finished!!! Turned out beautiful, wish I could send you a picture!!!

[@1tinac]

Fabulous quilt. I am glad you unrolled. It is beautiful.

[@michellebee1117]

Such a cute quilt! I lean more towards charm packs and layer cakes but this has me wanting to run out and buy a jelly roll right now! ❤️

[@christinemitchell5166]

I love your energy! I enjoy your videos and they are super helpful.

[@missypearlgurl]

You have made it look easy and I am starting one, been waiting and trying to see what to do. Now I have motivation, thank you!!

[@jennyjist]

Love love love all of your wonderful tutorial, guess I’ll have to see which jellyroll I can open🤣. Loved seeing the snow, I lived in Colorado for 8 years and now I am in Fl, BIG change😱. Blessings to you and your sweet family🤗❤️

[@erica_arndt]

Oh yes, that is a big change! We even have snow in the forecast for next week LOL!

[@donnadesloge3385]

beautiful kitty!!!! love your quilt , I'm going to try making it

[@cristaljohns1999]

Another simple and cute one! Love it!

[@njay2340]

That is an awesome quilt, and I’ve got a jelly roll that I had no idea what to make with it. Now I do. My miss kitty loves to lay on my quilts, while I’m quilting them also 🌼 love all your videos!

[@lisawalters5482]

So fun! Hopefully that’s your last snow for the spring, but probably not. Lol. Can’t wait for the bonus project. Have a great weekend. God bless. 👏🏻💕👏🏻

[@c.reddig8529]

I have WAY too many jelly rolls sitting on my shelf, so I understand needing a moment to go for it and unroll them. Thank you for such a great tutorial. I needed something quick to make for my mother's birthday coming up, and this will be perfect! Thanks again for all your great tutorials. (and yes, I'm subscribed)

[@victorialopez526]

I just watched this video as it popped up when I was searching for an easy fun pattern. 🤗 I love your videos and this one just got me in the mood for a quick quilt!! Thanks!!

[@msnelson98]

🌺🌸 Love ❤️ Love 💕 Love 💗 your quilt tutorial. 🥰. Tomorrow can’t get here fast enough to get started on making one for myself. You’re very talented. Thank you for sharing your gift 💝

[@diannewhitmire3654]

Thank you for this video. I am finishing something similar now and it’s so cute. I wish I could show you! It is just adorable!!! You are amazing and I have learned so much from you! Thank you!!!

[@alancynvideo]

Erica, thank you for your wonderful tutorials, I truly enjoy them! I just got let go from my job due to Covid so I have some time to reflect and making a quilt will be very therapeutic! Also, the snow, wow. Sending some sunshine and warmth from Hawaii!

[@pianoismyforte8544]

I really liked this video and it's inspired me to unfold a jelly roll and try this pattern. You talk super fast though without taking a breath! :)

[@helpful112]

Love your tutorial! As a longarm quilter I can tell you that the no. 1 mistake of quilters, is not measuring their quilt down the middle and then cutting their border to that measurement. The way you add your borders will usually result in borders that are longer than the quilt which makes excess fullness in the borders. The longarm quilter has to then try to ease in the fullness to keep the quilt square. Sometime the borders are so wonky that a tuck has to be made in the border.

[@erica_arndt]

Thanks for the tips!

[@yvonnewilliamson6368]

I love your videos and your tutorials! Thank you for making them!! As always Jax is right in the middle of your projects and is darling! Can't wait for the bonus video too!

[@karensorenson4925]

So awesome! Thank you Karen Sorenson

[@patlind7242]

What size quilt did this make? How many jelly rolls did you use? How much fabric for the borders? Love this quilt…have been looking for a new project

[@erica_arndt]

Hi, I used one jellyroll, the finished quilt ended up at 76" x 76", but you can adjust that size depending on your borders. All of the information for the borders I did is in the pattern: store.confessionsofahomeschooler.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=96&products_id=576

[@campcreekfarmwilliams8545]

Excellent video, and very easy to follow instructions.

[@sandrahaigh2976]

So pretty. I love the colours 💖💚

[@suezeeq12]

This video makes me so happy!!! I love this quilt!!! I'm always so excited to see your notifications of videos!

[@estherbowe9716]

I laughed out loud about your comment to “spend a few minutes with your jelly roll”!! You must be hiding in my quilting room to get that idea! 🤣🤣

[@bethoverton1611]

Love the pattern and can't wait to try! Excited about the pillow, too. Loved Jax's contribution 🤣

[@alicekelly4975]

That’s a really cute quilt, thank you for the instructional video. Ha ha, cats like to be center of attention, mine used to try and sit on my chest while I was trying to knit.

[@countrygal854]

Beautiful quilt and fabric. I enjoy watching your videos thanks for sharing

[@debbie-bethmutzabaugh985]

As always, I love your tutorials. And Jax, well, he is so funny.

[@SuperBettyboop23]

Thank you so much for this easy pattern I totally love it and I love the choice of jelly roll that you chose it’s perfect for this project❣️✂️🧵💕🥰
