How to Make a Jelly Roll Rug | A Shabby Fabrics Sewing Tutorial
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 авг 2018
- We're always looking for projects that we can complete using precuts like Jelly Rolls, and this one is so cute and so fun we had to share it with you! We love that this project is both pretty and practical, and we've gotten permission from Roma, the pattern designer, to share a part of the process with you.
You'll need 40 of these 2.5 inch by width of fabric strips to make this 30" x 42" Rug, and 2 rolls of batting. The pattern covers how to make other shapes, and you can increase the size of the rug simply by using more strips.
We used the Bernina #97D foot to create the strips. We used the Bernina #20 foot to zig-zag the strips together. We did not use a walking foot while assembling the rug.
* NOTE: In this video, Jen says the batting rolls measure 50 yards and that you'll need 2. The rolls actually measure 25 yards each-you will need a total of 50 yards (or 2 rolls) for 1 Jelly Roll Rug.
We recommend sewing your rug with a heavy-duty needle, like a denim needle, that will be able to handle the bulk of the strips. You can find our suggestions in the list below.

So beautiful, I LOVE THE WAY YOU EXPLAIN ATHESE TUTORIALS JENNIFER!
Thank you so much, Cherry!! I'm so glad you like the tutorials! :)
This is such a great idea! I'm excited to try it! I always love your videos! Thanks!
Thank you so much for watching! It's such a fun project. Let us know if you make it, and if there are any specific videos you'd like to see.
Thanks for the video, I just got my pattern and I had a few questions after reading it and you answered all of them. Looking forward to matching my rug and quilt.
Perfect! Always more than happy to help! :)
Love this rug ! Thank you for showing me how it’s made !
You're so welcome! :) So glad you liked the video! - Morgan
Could u tell me pls which type of fabric u used?
I have started mine and have learned a lot! I am at the point of folding and sewing the strips together. I made every error possible, tried several “short cuts”, which turned out to be wrong! I should email Roma to add to her wonderful instructions, things NOT to do! Your rug is lovely, BTW ✂️✂️😘
Thank you for watching Janet! Roma would probably love those tips, as would other Jelly Roll Rug makers! There are definitely shortcuts NOT to take, haha. We learned our lesson the hard way, too.
Thank you for another wonderful easy to follow tutorial. I find your tutorials gentle, easy to watch and informative.
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching and supporting the channel! :)
I have this pattern - jelly roll - and batting strips - all set to go! However my machine does not have the stitch length or size marked like that so I'm lost. What is 5.5 and 2.0? How can I tell if my machine is even close? Thank you for the lovely tutorial :)
2.0 is 2 mm therefore you would need to measure BUT if you know whether it’s a large or a small stitch that will do. My machine doesn’t have these sizes so that is how I get it in the right ballpark.
In the pattern, those numbers just refer to stitch length (5.5mm) and stitch width (2.0). A lot of machines differ, so it's a good idea to just test your zig-zag before you get started. Make sure it's wide enough to catch both strips, and short enough to hold it all together. Hope that helps!
eileenfb1948 thank you!!
Shabby Fabrics thank you 😊
Incorrect: The stitch width is 5.5 and the length is 2.0
It’s amazing! Thank you for showing! I really couldn’t understand how it worked by looking at the pics. I may feel intimidated to walk on it though.....
You're so welcome! Hopefully it makes it more manageable for you. Definitely don't be intimidated to walk on it! They're really durable and you can wash them, so it's not to worry.

I always love your videos❤. Can't wait to try one😊. Thank you!
Thanks so much for watching, Darlene! We appreciate your support! Hope you love the project. It's so much fun!
Would you recommend polyester thread instead of the 50wt cotton I typically use?
For this Jelly Roll Rug we used/ recommend a, Konfetti Thread KT905 Light Grey, this is a Egyptian cotton that is double gassed and mercerized. Here is a direct link to where this can be found on our website. www.shabbyfabrics.com/Konfetti-Thread-KT905-Light-Grey-1000m-P66536.aspx
It makes a more substantial rug using the precut batting with the fabric. What a fun project, thanks Jennifer, good tip about sizing, thanks Tammy.
The batting strips definitely make a difference. Thank you so much for watching, so glad you like the tutorial and the project! :)
Shabby Fabrics why does using the precut batting make a more substantial rug? Is it thicker?
That's a great question CJ 1419. It doesn't necessarily make the rug thicker, it just makes it more convenient to use precut batting. You certainly can cut your own strips, we just like to skip extra steps when we can. :) - Morgan
Beautiful! Thank you so much!
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching! :)
Hi Jennifer and thank you so much for sharing with us with such passion! You are so well prepared! The rugs are gorgeous! 😎🌸
Thank you so much for watching! We're so happy to share with you, because we love making and love teaching others. So glad you found the tutorial helpful!
That project looks like fun!! Thanks for sharing!!
It's so much fun! Thank you for watching!
looks so fun to do; wanted to see a zoom while sewing at the end and also the front & back zoomed to see what it looked like.
That's a good idea! We can add supplementary videos to our social media for you! :)
Would have been nice if the photographer did propper close ups where we can see the needle and stitches and how it looks. We don’t need to see the wall, table, etc. Having to go by the verbal description. It looks such a lovely project.
Thanks for that feedback! If you follow us on Facebook or Instagram, you can find detail up-close shots that show the thread and stitching. We'll make sure to include detail views in future tutorials. It's a lovely project, hope you try it! :)
❤️
eileenfb1948 Is
Let me suggest as I have just finished mine. Use your quilting gloves ... this makes moving the heavy awkward piece around . And use the "Stitch-in-the-ditch" foot to join the long piece to make the rug. You will not have to worry that you are missing one side or the other
eileenfb1948 )
Beautiful and fun! Thanks Jennifer 😊! 🤠
You're so welcome! Glad you like it!
Do you sell batting squares for the layer cakes?
Hello! We don't have any batting squares right now, unfortunately!
I have had thus tool forever. This us the first time I used it. I have to admit I shyed away from this project as I thought it was too time consuming. Man am I wrong. Run don't walk to get this tool. Worth its Wright in gold. Great tutorial as always +
We're glad you enjoyed this tutorial and were successful with your project! Thanks for watching! 💖 -Michelle
After making several of these, I would definitely recommend using your dual feed foot or a walking foot when stitching the rug together.
Yes, that's going to be SO helpful! Thanks for sharing that tip with other rug makers! :)
Thanks for your helpful presentation. The use of sizing sounds like a great idea.
You're so welcome, and thank you for watching! Magic Sizing works so well, and we love how readily available it is at most grocery stores. - Morgan
this is a wonderful tutorial. very clear and easy to follow. I enjoyed seeing the various jelly roll colors and do Not consider them clutter. thank you
Thank you so much for that kind comment! So glad you enjoyed the tutorial and seeing all the Jelly Roll Rug versions! We thought they were a great addition to show the possibilities. Hope you have a beautiful day. - Morgan
I loved your illustration it is very clear and precise thank you for sharing this is something I would love to do and can give as gifts for Christmas my siblings would love it
So glad you liked the video, and thank you so much for watching! These are really fun projects and really do make gorgeous gifts. - Morgan
Can you tell me how much thread I would need for this project?
Yes! You need a lot of thread! We suggest pre-winding bobbins (we use 3 on our Bernina, but those are larger bobbins than most machines use). We use a 1,000m spool.
Thank you SEW much!!!
Can you use Best Press instead of sizing?
You sure can! We just have Magic Sizing laying around, so that's what we used. :)
Magic Sizing smells so nice! We like that it's readily available at most grocery stores, and is inexpensive. :)
Can you use the folded corner clipper to make the long strip? I ask because you’re putting the strips together like when you make bias binding.
Thank you for watching! As we did not use the Folded Corner Clipper tool for this project however, you do choose to try it, we do suggest doing a test run on some scraps before starting the rug! Stay safe! ~Leah
Thank you for this great video. May I ask what is the name of the jelly roll used in the very last segment with the light blue& cream colored rug? The Jelly Roll for that rug is absolutely beautiful!
Thank you so much for watching! That Jelly Roll is Blue Sky, and unfortuantely we sold out of that one. However, Something Blue by Andover looks almost identical! And it's on sale today in our shop: www.shabbyfabrics.com/Something-Blue-2-Strips-by-Edyta-Sitar-for-Andover-Fabrics-P61328.aspx?categoryid=87
- Morgan
It took me time too to remember there is no foot lifter on the back of my Bernina 770. I do love the knee lifer. I hope you love your Bernina as much as I do.
We sure do love this Bernina! The knee movement is something to get used to, that's for sure.
This is so pretty and fun 👍. Thank you for sharing. I have never made a rug like this before and I feel like Dory that I got lost for a second because one second you are clipping and taking to the machine and the next second the rug is shaped and almost finished when you show the zigzag part. I don’t understand how it got in that particular shape or dimensions. I love the fabrics and kits but I must admit I am lost on the instructions.
Unfortunately, we couldn't show the entire process (like how to start the shape) because this is someone else's pattern. The pattern designer, Roma, gave us permission to show strip construction and share some tips, but asked us to keep other parts of the construction out of the video. Her pattern is really well written and guides you through everything perfectly.
You can also see our latest tutorial for the Jelly Roll Slice Rug - this one is our pattern and we show you the entire process: ruclips.net/video/Dhx0eE0TvXk/видео.html
- Morgan
Awesome tutorial! Do you think a beginner could do this? It is absolutely gorgeous and looks like fun!
Thank you so much for watching! We think a beginner could definitely handle this project. It's really not as difficult as it looks, though it does take a good amount of time.
For a beginner, I would suggest making a very small test one first. A table top version 10”x15” or so. You will figure out how to sew around corners on your very small table top mat. Then you can see if you want to tackle a big floor rug.
Very nice tutorial! I like the way each step is show just enough to do what needs to be done without becoming bored. lol
Thank you for a great lesson and I think I can make my first jellyroll rug confidently. : )
Woohoo! We're very happy that this project has inspired you. We look forward to your project photos! 💖 -Michelle
Love it the colors are great
Thank you!
When finished does the rug need to be used on top of carpeting so it does not slide on wood or tile floor? Or is there a non-slip matting that can be sewn on the bottom? TIA
You can use it on any type of flooring it might move around more on a tile or wood floor, but you should be able to find some not-slip matting to sew to the bottom. Unfortunately, we do not sell this item, but you should be able to find some online or maybe even in some fabrics stores near you.
You mentioned you "go where (you) look"-- I find that is sooo true, whether drawing a line on paper, driving or biking...makes total sense for machine sewing! A metaphor for life?
So true, and so helpful (for sewing and life) once we realize it! Thank you for watching! - Morgan
My hesitation about making these rugs is that I’ve heard you have to iron them after washing. Will using sizing initially keep the fabric flat after washing?
Also could you simply use the batting down the middle of the strip making less bulk to sew (even though the rug would not be as thick and soft)?
We're not sure if batting down the middle of the strip would work, because we haven't tried it ourselves. We like the 2.5" batting strips because we don't have to do any extra cutting with them, but you could certainly give it a try. Sizing should help keep them flat, but you may need to give them a quick press after washing.
Jennifer, I just bought the Bernina 770 QE and I am in love. What feet did you use for the rug and what pressure did you did you set your machine to?
We left our pressure at the default, however, if you're having issues with your machine pushing the fabric, start taking some of the pressure off until you find the right amount of pressure to use. ~Leah🙃
Hi Jennifer, just watching your tutorial now. I also have a Bernina and you mentioned adjusting the pressure on the foot. Do you remember what you set the pressure to , to work with the bulk? Thanks!
Hi Anndalynn - We adjusted ours based on our bulk. Adjust the pressure foot while it is up, and make sure there is a bit of air between your bulk and foot before placing your pressure foot down. Hope this makes sense! -Michelle
Jen, I am in the process of this fun project. I am "at the end of my rope" and am now starting to sew the actual rug. I have never seen a tute that shows how to sew the 1st couple of rounds. I am stuck on the 2nd round. I know I have the rope facing correctly, just don't know how to turn that corner. Can you help?? Thanks, and gorgeous rug!!
Hi Colleen! Hope you're having fun with the rug! We would have loved to show that part in the video, but we didn't want to give away the pattern that Roma, the pattern designer, worked hard to create. She asked us to leave that part out. Do you have your pattern in front of you? Roma's directions are really great for starting the rug. It's mostly just muscling it into place while you round that corner. - Morgan
Fabulous tutorial!!
Hi Rebecca! Thank you for watching! Let us know if you have any questions! Stay safe! ~Leah
I just finished my rug! i love it! It's a little puckery around the edge, but I'm hoping ironing will take care of it. BTW, once I got the batting and saw it was from Maine, I was sure the batting is pronounced K'Tahdin. It is the tallest mountain in Maine, located in Baxter State Forest.
Hi Leslie! The rugs are so fun! That's a fun fact we didn't know! Thank you for sharing! ~Leah
Sizing is that the same as spray starch???
In a way Sizing is the same as Spray Starch, but there is a small difference. Sizing is used to give fabric more of a body versus Starch is used to give a stiffness to your fabric. That was a great question! :)
Do you have tips on how to stop the curling of the fabric. I have ironed and starched every couple of rows but still,is wavy
That can happen when you pull the fabric too much while sewing, but it's also just a natural thing with these rugs. Each of ours has curled up around the edges. We press it using Magic Sizing, lots of steam, and spend quite a bit of time on it. We've also heard from other makers that they press it and steam it, and then set something very heavy on top of it (like lots of books) for a day or two to help keep it flat. That seems to work well.
Keddy Eddy someone I saw cut their own fabric on the bias which they said, helps take out the waviness too.
What model Bernina machine is being used?
We're using a 770 QE!
Great video. Do you have the jig notion presented in your you tube short? The one that folds the strip and batting?
Glad you enjoyed this tutorial! You can find the Clover Fabric tube Maker here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/p146448 -Michelle
This is a great way to use up my left over jelly rolls.
Yes! It's a great project for scraps or leftovers, or a stash-buster. You can cut your own 2.5" strips out of your favorite yardage, too!
I love your videos ! I'm sorry if this has been answered, but how does one launder these rugs?
You can wash them. We recommend on a gentle cycle. Happy that you like this project and thanks for your comment! - Abby
@@ShabbyFabrics Thank you so much!
I couldn't find the batting rolls with the pattern kit. Does anyone know where on the web site it is?
The batting rolls should be located below the items description in the options to add. Here is a direct link to where the Batting Rolls can be found individually www.shabbyfabrics.com/Bosal-Katahdin-100-Cotton-Batting-For-Jelly-Roll-Rugs-P63981.aspx?categoryid=87 Here is also a direct link to the pattern where the Batting Rolls should be located in the add on options www.shabbyfabrics.com/Jelly-Roll-Rug-Pattern-P65931.aspx If you have any further questions please contact us as we are always willing to help! Happy Quilting! :)
You mention in the tutorial that you have a kit of the batting and pattern together. Still can't find that.
Yes, we changed the format of the kit a little bit, so it's the pattern with add-on roll of batting in sets of 2, and then you add a jelly roll of your choice. If you already have the pattern we sell the batting separately so you don't have to re-purchase the pattern.
Or, you can choose one of our pre-made jelly roll rug kits that comes. You can see all the choices here: bit.ly/2Lo3cRS
What is the name of the jelly roll used on the rug she was sewing at the end? Blue sky by Edyta Sitar?
Yes, it was Blue Sky! Here is a direct link to where it can be found on our website www.shabbyfabrics.com/jelly-roll-rug-kit-blue-sky-P66491.aspx Enjoy! :)
Do we have to have that sewing machine to do that rug
No, you don't have to have this machine. Almost any machine will work as long as the needle and presser foot can handle the bulk of the material.
I wish you could have started one from the start of the middle coil of the rug. But Thank you so much for showing how to do this....love it!
We wish we could, too! The pattern designer asked us not to show that bit, but her pattern is excellent and will be so helpful when making this! Thank you so much for watching.
what size is the rug showing behind you.
That one is about 38" x 42".
Is the Blue Sky used for the second rug back in stock? I saw it on your website but wasn’t sure if it was a different collection. Thanks!
We do have Edyta Sitar's Blue Sky in stock: www.shabbyfabrics.com/Blue-Sky-C5401.aspx -Michelle
What do you mean by "using sizing"
Jen means "Magic Sizing" which is the ironing spray she uses to help prep the fabric.
use spray starch
Enjoyed so much thank you
We're happy you enjoyed this project. Thanks for commenting!! -Michelle
Hi. Love this pattern. What jelly roll are you using on the rug you are making? Thanks for the tutorial!
Hi Eemada! Are you referring to the Detour Ahead strips by Wilmington Prints? -Michelle
@@ShabbyFabrics It is the rug that is already partially done sitting on the table behind the sewing machine? Thanks
Where did you get that extra large cutting mat on your table? And what size is it?
Jen has a MegaMat on her sewing table in the videos. We do not have these available on our website however they are available in multiple places found by a google search! ~Leah
Bosal now makes fusible 2 1/4 inch batting. Would it be easier to use that batting?
Hi Carmen! Either batting would work well! Thank you for watching! - Sophie
This is my new favorite channel! I want to do all the projects! I’m dying to make one of these rugs I have to one how do you song machine first. 😬
That will open so many different sewing projects for you to be able to do, you will never want to stop! If you have any questions along the way let us know and we are always happy to help answer your questions. :) -Kyla
Thank you, Kyla! 😊. Crap… Obviously are use voice text and I’m surprised you understood my comment was. I should’ve read it first
You're welcome, and no worries, It happens to the best of us! :) -Kyla
Would like to have seen the very start of stitching the round together, I have not got mine right yet!
We would love to show that, but the pattern designer asked us not to, so to respect her, we showed other portions instead. :) Roma's pattern does a really good job explaining how to get that started! - Morgan
Beautiful
Thank you so much! We love making these Jelly Roll Rugs! - Morgan
What is the name of the sizing you used? Do you have a link? I have the instructions and find them hard to follow. Any tips on starting the rug?
If you follow along with the video Jen does a phenomenal job going through this. Any of the links can be found when you click "Show more" under the video. If you still can't find it please let me know and I would be more than happy to help! - Yajaira
@@ShabbyFabrics I don’t see anything mentioned about the sizing in the “show more” section. Can you give me a link? Thank you
A paper towel stand would be handy to hold the batting roll.
Yes! That's a great idea! Thanks for sharing that. - Morgan
Yes, and roll it on the paper towel cardboard so it will unwind easily.
Let me clarify, once you sew the strips to the batting, roll it back up on a cardboard roll to sew into your rug.
I made one of these, but it curls up. How can I fix it? I have been told to rip it out and start again.
Don't rip it out! :) All of ours curl up as well, that's normal. We've found that Magic Sizing sprayed liberally on the rug combined with pressing and steaming really helps the rug to lie nice and flat. Give that at try and let us know how it works. - Morgan
What is the difference in spray starch and sizing?
The difference between Spray Starch and Sizing is that Starch is used to add stiffness to fabrics; whereas, sizing is used to give the fabric more body. You can use spray starch in placement of sizing; however, sometimes it can make your fabric overly stiff. If you have any further questions please let me know as I am always happy to help! -Kyla
Thanks for showing the the different techniques. It would help if some of the jelly rolls and batting rolls were moved off of the table. They were blocking the camera. Way to much clutter. There is no need to have a jelly roll display on the table for the tutorial.
Thanks for watching, Teresa.
Yes, that would be most helpful...I have not sewn since high school and this looks like fun.
Is she putting the ends together at a 90 degree angle and then, sewing at a 45 degree angle on those two strips?
@@ShabbyFabrics just the 'thanks" without addressing her specific VALID comment, isn't much of a reply, your display, while 'cute', blocked the video
Hi arethe precut batting strips available in Australia ? Postage is a killer.. makes each roll over $100.00 🙁🙁🙁
We're not sure if any shops in Australia have access to the Katahdin. That's a great question, and hopefully someone else on here from Australia might have better insight. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. - Morgan
Can you tell me the size of the rug when it is finished.
Yes! These are about 38" x 42", give or take. Each one of ours has been slightly different sizes.
What are you spraying? Did I miss that? I agree the camera should have done a close up. For a beginner what do you mean sizing it?
We were spraying with Magic Sizing, which is what we mean when we say "sizing it". Sizing helps give it a bit of body, stiffens it up a bit, and makes it behave more nicely. ;) - Morgan
Shabby Fabrics ok thank you.
That looks like fun😅
It sure can be! Thanks so much for watching. -Michelle
Wonderful video. Thank you! I can't wait to make one now!
BTW It's pronounced Kah-TAH-din after Mount Katahdin in Maine ;-)
Thank you so much for watching! So glad you enjoyed it! And thank you for the pronunciation help! :) Happy sewing! - Morgan
What is the collection of the rug you zigzag stitched?
That one was made with the Blue Sky collection. We sold out of that option, but we do have Something Blue available, which is a very similar collection!

looks a great project - but it would have been nice when demonstrating the machining that you showed how to start machine from the beginning. Always love your videos though - thank you.
Thank you for the great feedback and following along with our tutorials! We will get this passed on to our video team. Happy Quilting! :)
How long did t take to make alot of work
These rugs take us about a full day at the office. They're time-consuming, but aren't difficult to achieve. - Morgan
But what if you don’t have a flat table thing on your sewing machine? Won’t it make it wavy? Or could I stack books to take it flat idk lol
I dont have the table so I am going to stack books.
Yes, stacking books to the height would be a good solution as not all sewing machines are equipped with the extra "table" piece. -Michelle
How do you start the first part of the rug and go around d the curves to start?
We're glad you like this project! This information can be found in the written pattern - unfortunately, this was not one of the portions that the designer gave us permission to disclose. Thanks for watching. 💖 -Michelle

I’d love to create such a wonderful rug as yours but I have never used a sewing 🧵 machine before I do not know how to use one or even load the thread It would have been nice in your tutorial that you showed how to load the machine before you went on to do the project
We did not show this, as every sewing machine is different. I did pass this along to our video team. However, you can search via RUclips, and find video tutorials showing how your exact sewing machine can be loaded. If you have any further questions please let me know as I am always happy to help! -Kyla
Shabby Fabrics I’m starting to realize this 😎 thank you I’m looking for the easiest sewing machine to load as I am a beginner Any recommendations Thank you
When you do purchase a sewing machine (we love using Bernina, even their beginner models are fantastic) just search the exact name and model number and you'll see a lot of tutorials pop up here on RUclips. It's a great time to learn something new with all of the free resources available on the internet. ;) - Morgan
Shabby Fabrics thank you for the advice I’ll be sure to look into getting one ♥️
Can you tell me the name of the white fabric you use on the jelly roll
All of these rugs are made with a jelly roll from a collection. The white material in the purple rug are from the Emma's Garden Collection. ~Leah
where can i get sizing?
Unfortunately, we do not offer this item through our store, but you should be able to find it online or in a fabric store near you. :)
What is sizing?
Lisa armstrong starch.
Thank you Chandra Cox. Sizing is very close to starch the only difference is that starch adds more of a firmness to your fabric, whereas sizing adds more of a body to your fabric.
Walmart carries sizing and starch. Look in the laundry aisle. Hope this helps.
Thank you for this tutorial. Could tell me the name of the jelly roll you used in the last segment.
That is the Blue Sky jelly roll. You can find it here: bit.ly/2nfMTga
Is sizing the same as starching?
Hi Sheryl! Sizing and starching are very similar and accomplish the same goal. Thank you for watching! - Sophie

What foot are. You using?
We are using the 97D with the dual feed engaged! ~Leah🙃
What is sizing ? 😊
Your rag rug is so beautiful.
It's usually a spray akin to starch. One of the brands we use here is called "Magic Sizing". Hope this helps :) -Michelle
Want to make one, love thi😮s so much
Can you please tell me what sizing is ??
Sizing is very similar to starch. The only main difference between sizing and starch is that sizing gives your fabric more of a body, whereas starch gives your fabric a firmness. :)
Shabby Fabrics oh great thankyou. Is sizing available in the UK ?
That is a very good question. I do not see why it would not be available in the UK, but that would definitely have to be something you might have to look further into. If you have any further questions please let me know as I am always willing to help! :)
Shabby Fabrics thank you so much. I love watching your tutorials, you explain everything so well xx

Mercy how many clips would you need woozy !!! It is beautiful tho!
We just cycle through our box of 50 Wonder Clips! ;) When we run out of clips we sew, then clip some more, then sew, and repeat! That would indeed be a LOT of clips. Thank you for watching! Let us know if you give it a try. - Morgan
you could likely space the clips out at least every 6 inches as the fabric will follow the fold pattern if you don't rush the sewing. That is my preference as I don't like to be stopping/slowing to pull pins or clips every couple of inches. I find the sewing i smoother that way BUT everyone's experience and preference if different! Better for folks to do it more frequently until they are confident enough to space them out than to get frustrated and give up at the beginning. It is a great technique and I a enjoying all the videos I have found on it to date!
i love the video. Katahdin is pronounced Ka-ta-din. Its a mountain in Maine.
Thank you for letting us know! So glad you like the video! :) - Morgan

Thank you for watching! We follow the pattern written by RJ Designs and she does a great job of explaining it. This is a really fun project. We always love to hear tips and helpful hints from our viewers. ~Leah
Make sure to get a denim needle
That's a good tip! We used the Topstitch 100 because it's thick like the denim needle. You definitely want a nice thick, strong needle.
I tried sewing my jelly roll together ended up wavy so I ordered the extension table and will start over
Oh, dear! Did the extension table seem to help? -Michelle

Jennifer, I watched this a couple days ago and I can't stop thinking about the Bernina machine on your table. When you were sewing on it, is was so quiet and appears to be a good strong machine. Could you share the design/machine name and love to get you opinion for quilting/crafting with that machine? Loved your tutorial, very helpful.
Hi Linda, I am sewing on a Bernina 770QE and I LOVE this machine. It's so strong, reliable and has an incredible warranty. The array of presser feet alone are incredible. You get top notch service and training from your local dealer. I definitely recommend Bernina to anyone who loves to sew and/or quilt. XO Jen
Off to research... Thanks so much for responding
You're so welcome! Let me know how it goes.
I've made something similar to this but it was a tree skirt. It came out wobbly...any idea how to not make that happen?
Hi Sonya - We would have a difficult time assessing this without some photos of the project. -Michelle
Great project! What model sewing machine are you working on? I’m interested in getting back into quilting and would like a new machine.
Yes! It's the Bernina 770 QE. (QE just stands for quilters edition) :)
