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.
