Hello All! I picked up a Miss Kate jelly roll and finished up this quilt top over the weekend, but between the rainy weekend, and the short daylight hours I've been foiled in my attempts to get a good picture of it. I rushed outside before school today and snapped this one in the morning light.
I haven't pressed it yet, and in the biting 16 degree temperature this morning, I didn't take the time to smooth it out for the photo. (The sashing really is straight, I promise!)
I had fun putting this one together. I've always liked coin quilts, but I wanted to make it a little more interesting by randomly arranging the coin strips. It takes a little bit of planning, but I like the look. Since this is such a great use of a jelly roll, I'm thinking of writing the pattern for it. What do you think?
That is really cute! I struggle what to do with jelly rolls sometimes. I think a pattern would be great and this layout is fun.
ReplyDeleteThis is really cute. I like how in some spots the white just looks like another piece of the strip, so it makes the strip look really long (like at the bottom row).
ReplyDeleteI think a pattern for this would be great! I love the way you put a spin on a typical coin strip quilt!
ReplyDeleteYes, pattern please!
ReplyDeleteLove the quilt! Pattern, please. Understand the cold thing, we have reached our high today of 21.
ReplyDeleteVery nice quilt top. Being new to the craft, I have not heard of coin patters. Please do write one up.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun design when it's done like that! Love it.
ReplyDeleteFun fabric and pattern. Did it freeze to the deck?
ReplyDeleteWould love a pattern! Very cool!
ReplyDeleteLove the quilt and would really like the pattern!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see the pattern. I happen to have a Miss Kate jelly roll that I could use.
ReplyDeleteKelly, it's pretty, fresh and cheerful!
ReplyDeleteI've seen several and made several coin quilts but I really like how your layout. YES you should write up a pattern for it!
ReplyDeleteFabulous quilt! I love how you mixed up the coins! Brrr....16 degrees!!! I am so over this weather already!
ReplyDeleteYou are a pattern makin machine! I've always been on the fence about coin quilts. I don't love the straight up and down rows, so this is great! :)
ReplyDeleteI love it, I think you definitely should write a pattern for it!!!
ReplyDeleteYes please!
ReplyDeleteI like how this has worked and have 3 jelly rolls stashed away maybe this is what I should do with one of them
ReplyDeleteI like how you have the strips sets going in both directions...adds a lot.
ReplyDeleteI haven't used jelly rolls, but I do like to make coins from yardage. This is a cute quilt, and something I'd make, especially for a quick quilt for donation. I think a pattern is a good idea.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great pattern. You colors are marvelous.
ReplyDeleteGreat design Kelly, definitely write up a pattern! I recently made a quilt using Miss Kate fabrics, they are so neat!
ReplyDeleteYou did that in a weekend?! I'm so jealous!
ReplyDeletelooks amazing! I think a pattern would be great :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful I love the Miss Kate fabric!
ReplyDeleteYeah! I really love how you randomly oriented the strips - this is super cool!
