  1. Watch this video from beginning to end and then start cutting (to make sure you understand).
  2. Make sure the grain of fabric is going in the same direction (see video).
  3. Open your Jelly Roll and set aside 20 strips for the Sashing.
  4. Cut 49 pieces that measure 2-1/2 x 6-1/2 (it already measures 2-1/2 so you only have to cut it 6-1/2).  You get six out of one Jelly Roll strip so you will need 9 strips but you’ll only make one cut on the 9th piece.
  5. Determine your first row and label it with numbered pins or post it notes.


Next up … we’ll be sewing the rectangles to the bottom of the squares (but not on the bottom row).

See ya!

Lulu Roses Quilt Along

To make the Lulu Roses Quilt you will need the following:

  • 1/2 yard of fabric of 7 Patterns
  • 1 Jelly Roll – that coordinates with your fabric
  • Backing Fabric – 4-5/8 yards (more if you make a larger quilt)
  • Binding Fabric – 1/2 yard
  • Matching Thread
  • I will have my quilt finished by my longarm quilter and she provides the batting.
  • Basic Sewing supplies (scissors, sewing machine, etc)

The Fabric I’m using is Lulu Roses by Tanya Whelan for Free Spirit.

Here’s some more info about the Lulu Roses Quilt

  • Measures 59 x 67
  • Total 56 Blocks
  • Blocks measure 6-1/2 x 6-1/2
  • Quilt is:  7 Blocks Across and 8 Blocks Down
  • 49 White Strips measure 2-1/2 x 6-1/2
  • Sashing – 20 Strips
  • The picture I’ve provided shows a larger quilt (9 blocks across and 8 down) but we are making a smaller size to allow us to complete it in the next 6 weeks.

I’m providing a written tutorial that will follow along our Quilt Along.  We may or may not make some modifications at the end.

How much fabric do you need for 56 Blocks?

  • It depends on how many patterns of fabric you buy.  You can get 12 squares out of  a 1/2 yard of fabric.    I went with 7 patterns … 8 blocks each of 7 patterns for a total of 56.
  • Another option would be 5 Patterns of fabric – But you would need to buy more than 1/2 yard (I would buy a whole yard to be safe).

I’ll be back later today with the First Video on how to make the Lulu Roses Quilt.

Raw Edges Square Quilt –  Quilt Along  Video 4

  • Sew row 3 to row 4 with a 1/4 seam.
  • Sew row 4 to row 5 with a 1/4 seam.
  • Our Quilt Top is complete …… check it for holes and trim all the threads.
  • Press the seams.
  • Measure for backing, batting and binding fabric using the Robert Kaufman Quilting Calculator app on the iPhone.  If you don’t own an iPhone I would google “quilting calculator”  … or take it to the quilt shop and they will figure it for you
  • Before I take mine to the long arm quilter I will press and starch the quilt.  If you plan on storing it for a while … you may not want to starch it just yet.

My Quilt top measures 58 x 69.

  • I need 4-1/8 yards of fabric for the backing and 1/2 yard for binding … if I take it to my long arm quilter.
  •  If I wanted to finish it on my mid arm quilting machine I need a bit more fabric … I  would need 4-3/4 yards instead of 4-1/8.

Here’s a picture of the Raw Edges Square Quilt Top
