Jelly Roll Race Quilt to Celebrate National Jelly Roll Day! - 10:30am - 4:30pm



Celebrate National Jelly Roll Day with a fun, fast, and satisfying quilt project! The Jelly Roll Race is perfect for beginners who can sew a consistent ¼" seam, yet still enjoyable for experienced quilters looking for a quick finish. Watch your quilt top come together with some magic in record time while enjoying a relaxed, social sewing day.

Key characteristics of a Jelly Roll Race quilt:
  • Speed: The folding and sewing method makes it a quick project, especially for beginners. 
  • No Quilt Math: No complex calculations or measurements are needed for the basic version. 
  • Unique Look: The final design emerges as you sew, creating a one-of-a-kind pattern. 
  • Adjustable Size: While the standard size is around 50 x 64 inches, it's possible to adjust the size by adding more strips or using a different number of folds. 
  • Beginner-Friendly: The simple construction and lack of precise cutting requirements make it an excellent project for those new to quilting.


What to Bring:

  • 1 jelly roll (42 pre-cut 2½" strips) OR a set of 42 fabric strips cut from your stash — scrappy is welcome!

  • Sewing machine in good working order (or rent one from the shop for $15)

  • Basic sewing supplies (thread, pins/clips, scissors, seam ripper, etc. or use our classroom supply)

  • ¼" presser foot recommended

Provided in Class:

  • Classroom cutting mats, rotary cutters, rulers, and irons

  • Guidance and tips for success throughout the day

You’ll leave with a finished quilt top and the skills to make more — these make wonderful gifts!
