I just opened a name brand jelly roll last week and let me say the strips were 2 3/8th inches. Boy, was I ticked when my blocks didn't work out. It took some math and I adjusted but I was pretty miffed as it messed up the quilt size. It had been on my shelf for a few years so I don't even know where I bought it. I do generally prefer name brand because my expectation is for a better quality fabric. You are right, you have to know the "feel" of a good fabric.

The is no comparison it is so soft and plushy, it’s not loosely woven like the other flannels. I am absolutely in love!♥️ If that makes me a fabric snob then, sew be it!

Your young gentleman is a peach!! I like the knockoff better because it is not quite so busy and seems a little more coherent than the designer one. However. I am also enamored with the higher end fabric because of the drape and all those other quality issues. My way of keeping costs under control is to buy a couple of must-haves at full price and the others on sale. And (with your encouragement in several videos) I am using my stash for backings and focusing on getting my stash in really good order so utilizing the fabrics is easier. Thank you for the thoughtful video on the budget friendly approach. Quilting can be a luxury activity for many people. I think they appreciate the acknowledgement that not everyone can spend top dollar for fabric. But still make beautiful quilts. You rock, Kris

Loving the fabrics help you to finish the quilt even if you are struggling with a pattern design that is a bit above your comfort zone.

Glad you enjoyed it! It was a fun video (and quilt!) to make. I was so surprised at how much I like the knock off version, too! I didn't think I would! Thank you so much!

I prefer the look of the budget friendly version. You made a perfect selection of fabrics. I particularly like the large red floral you chose.
