Your First Quilt Made Easy: Start with a Jelly Roll, Layer Cake or Charm Pack
If you've always wanted to make your first quilt but weren't sure where to begin, pre-cut fabric packs are one of the easiest ways to get started.
Rather than choosing dozens of coordinating fabrics and cutting every piece yourself, pre-cuts do most of the hard work for you. They're already professionally cut, colour coordinated and designed to work together, meaning you can spend more time sewing and less time measuring.
Whether you choose a Jelly Roll, Layer Cake or Charm Pack, you'll be surprised how quickly your first quilt comes together.
Which pre-cut should you choose?
Jelly Rolls
A Jelly Roll contains approximately 40–42 fabric strips measuring 2½" x the width of fabric.
These are perfect for:
- Beginner-friendly strip quilts
- Modern geometric designs
Because the cutting has already been done, you simply start sewing strips together.
