Jelly Roll Race

Some of our Family got together for a Jelly Roll race on 6-6-12
You sew a Jelly Roll end to end any method you want.
 Some mitered  some sewed them straight me a sister Peg put a 2 1/2 inch square between each strip.
We also made our own Jelly Roll using 40 Red,White and Blue strips.
The 1st one was finish in about an hour.
I had a slow sewing machine. (That's my excuse).
 It is a cute Featherweight.
 It is Cute but slow.
It was great fun.
