Low, my first attempt at piecing a quilt top (still in the cupboard unquilted) was a jelly roll sampler quilt by the Lintott ladies.  I found that there were too many middling tones in the JR to get the right contrast for all the blocks.
Life's too short for ironing.

I found that too, Ploshy, I supplemented with some home cut strips. Why are Jelly Rolls so midtonecentric??  :ninja:
Triumph of hope over experience :D
