Jelly Roll Race Quilts are fun and quick to sew up.
After cutting forty two different 2.5 inch strips from my stash I sewed up the top in about an hour and a half. Normally these are made with pre cut jelly rolls, but I did not have a green Jelly Roll that would work well. I had one, but it only had eight different fabrics, 5 strips each of print. The eight prints are pretty, but they wouldn't make a very diverse quilt so I created my own set of green strips.a
Even the white squares have light green dots in them.
I quilted it with some green thread. I started out with a meander but then added some leaves and wavy lines and what ever else struck my fancy.
I pieced the back with more green. This quilt is definitely made for someone who loves green!
Happy Quilting!

Seeing your stack of greens makes me want to see your whole fabric stash! Does the pattern call for the white squares or did you add them yourself? This is a perfect St. Patrick's Day quilt, very nice!
