Jelly Roll Quilts

Last time I went to Utah, Lori had a new book about Jelly Roll Quilting that was fascinating to look at.
When she and Mandy decided to come to California for a visit, we thought it might be fun to make quilts while they were here. We all chose fabric, cut it into 2 1/2" strips and were ready for the big quilting bee. (Okay, I know it wasn't a traditional quilting bee, but we were ready to make quilt tops together.)
We had three sewing machines and were busy as bees for 2 and a half days.
I think we all came to the conclusion that sewing for 12 hours at a time is not conducive to fun!
We did make great progress on the tops and we did have a good time together!
