Words can not describe how excited I am to be part of the Moda Bake Shop book Fresh Fabric Treats.
There are 15 authors participating in the Progressive Dinner to introduce you to this new book.
I don't know about you, but I had to look up the definition of progressive dinner.
I didn't even know dinners like this existed.
I live in a small town and we have potlucks LOL.
After this virtual progressive dinner...I am itching to try a real one!

Before I get off on too much of a tangent, let me introduce myself to new readers of my blog.
I'm Vickie.
I have been a sewer/crafter since I was 8 years old. I started with basic Barbie doll clothing and journeyed through cross stitch, crochet, miniatures, scrap booking, card making, cake decorating, knitting and quilting. I settled comfortably into quilting about 12 years ago while I was training to be a dentist. I have been a dentist for 10 years, married 11 years and have 2 lovely daughters. My time is little and precious as you can understand. I have always been searching for ways to streamline my quilting time. And that is where my love for Moda pre-cuts grew. I realized that sewing with pre-cut charm packs, jelly rolls etc. was a much quicker way to get right to a project. I enjoy all aspects of quilting, but make a part of it faster, easier and more enjoyable....I am there!
In addition to helping me sew more efficiently, I have found pre-cuts to really work well for my mother-in-law. Over the last 10 years she has had an increasingly more difficult time cutting fabric. She has had carpel tunnel surgery and the less cutting the better.
Pre-cuts are awesome for this!
They truly are.
With the right pattern she can just sit and sew.
I don't mean for this to sound like an infomercial.
I just really love/believe in jelly rolls and layer cakes.
Can you tell by the picture above?
Where else can you find such wonderful "sweets" without a chance of a cavity??
Oh, Come on, I HAD to put that in there.
{I promise that is the last dentist pun for this entire post}

«Oldest ‹Older 801 – 1000 of 1065 Newer› Newest»FQs are wonderful for the flexibility (and fabric!) they provide. However, charm packs are much more affordable and just darn cute!
Personally I love the layer cakes best, but I love using any of the precuts!
Good Day! First off...CONGRATS!
I have two favorite cuts...the charms and the layer cakes. Charms because...well...hmm. You can just slap on a white on white and get tonnes of half square triangles! I love layer cakes as I can cut circles out and still have enough to use elsewhere.
It is really hard to pick just one, I love all fabric. But if I had to pick one I would pick charm squares.
I'm a fat quarter lover, myself. I love that I can get two layer squares PLUS a few strips for binding, or a bunch of charm squares out of them. They're the perfect taste of a fabric line and totally versatile..
although, I got a fat eighth bundle of 12 days of Christmas the other day, and it's pretty perfect for my needs, too, so I might just shift that opinion later on. :)
I still love jelly rolls the best - must be true that there's something special about your first love :-)
I adore jellyrolls! There's just always an awesome + simple pattern for them! :-)
Fat quarters. The more fabric, the better. Congratulations on the book. I can't wait.
My favorite is the fat quarter bundles because they are so versatile.
I use jelly rolls most but I also love fat quarter bundles, they look so pretty in a group on a shelf, yes I know that's not what they're for.
Congratulations on the book! My favorite cut is the layer cakes - so easy to make up a quilt / or cut in to smaller pieces / squares for different patterns!!
Hmmm. It's a toss up between charm packs and fat quarter bundles. Probably fat quarter bundles -- plenty of fabric! Can't wait to see the book!
I am not sure what my favorite it yet. The only one I have worked with is a jelly roll and that was wonderful.
hiettfam (at) gmail (dot) com
I really love fat quarters - they are so versatile. You can use a larger piece or a smaller piece to a quilt - the creativity is personalized. The more fabric - the better. rpshandATnsDOTsympaticoDOTca
Your projects are so cute! My fav is a layer cake.
i love jelly rolls; they are so delicious looking all tied up with their moda twill tape ... love it ... they stir my creativity -- i'm *into* table runners right now and strip are so awesome to ... well ... strip together! thanks for the opportunity .... darlene
I go through phases where I like different pre-cuts. I currently like FQ bundles because I am into making clothes for my daughter and there is more to work with! Thanks for a chance to win!
I'm partial to charm packs, the price is great and they are just so practical. What a fun blog hop!
I love fat quarters - I like to have extra fabric for scrap projects lying around.
blueberryblues5(at)gmail(dot)com
I love jelly rolls! They're just so cute all tied up with a bow! Thanks!
I also love Jelly Rolls, but Charm packs are fun for little projects as well. Congrats on the book. Can't wait to get a copy of it!
I love ALL the precuts. It really depends on what project I have in mind to determine which one is my favorite. I must admit, all I sew with now is Moda Precut fabric.
Congratulations on the book! I love charm packs because I like to make pinwheel quilts - and I am no good at cutting.
Oh it's hard to choose, but I'd say the fat quarter bundles are my VERY fav ... so many ways to use them! Congrats on the new book, can't wait to get it !!
I would have to say my favorite precut is a fat quarter. I like to have the flexability the extra fabric offers. I pretty much love fabric in any shape or form though. It's all delish!

I love fat quarter packs the best because I can make whatever i want from them, and I'm not limited to certain patterns. Thanks for the giveaway!
Congrats Vickie! I currently love fat eigth bundles too, though fat quarter bundles are right behind them, but the fat eigths are cheaper so I can buy more different lines;-P
fat quarters...WOW...January 26th is my birthday...I feel lucky!
Love your chocolate stars quilt! And I love that you're a busy professional and still find time to share your great quilts with us!
My favorite precut is charm packs. I find so much to do with those little ones!
I love ALL the precuts because you spend less time cutting and more time creating.
Congrats on getting in the book and my favorite precut would be layer cakes, they have lots of versitility for cutting ajmoerler at gmail dot com
I love all the pre-cuts but charm packs were my first love last summer when I received my first sewing machine and started quilting. I love that for $8 or less I can get a sampling of every piece of the collection to use to my heart's content. 5 inch squares are great for mug rugs, blankets, pillows, TONS of projects that I love to make!
I think I love them all...So far I love charm squares and jelly rolls! I'm a beginner and haven't tried layer cakes or fat quarters yet. Your work is Gorgeous!! Congratulations on the new book...and TFS!!
I think my favorite precuts are the charm squares. Now that there are so many patterns available to use, I love them. Usually there is no cutting involved and having a sample of a whole line is great.
I like charm squares the best because I can get a sample of all the colors without a large expense. I would love to purchase some jellyrolls for strip quilts & purses and FQ Bundles for quilts, but the budget just doesn't allow it right now. :(
Thanks for the opportunity to win!

Hi Vickie, My favorite precut is having charm packs. For a small amount of $ I get one of each of a new line to touch....... Then if I really love some of them I can go purchase yardage!
I must admit I love a good FQ, but a charm pack is hard to beat for the price!
Dot
dminshall67@yahoo.com
I would have to say my favorite pre-cuts are FQ's simply because they are big enough to do most of the other pre-cut patterns with plus you get to have some left over. Charm packs are awesome too because I don't feel guilty spending $5-$10 on one to check out the prints in RL before I dole out the money to buy more yardage of each.
My favorite pre cut changes every day! Last week I couldn't do without it's a hoot, I bought three jelly rolls and a layer cake. And they are almost already gone! This week I am loving Sugar Pop, I made a quilt from the bakery in three days start to finish and it looks amazing! I love the modern prints and colors and all that pop!
Oooooo, I love fat quarter bundles... I'm just a fabric hog and can't get enough. LOL
I LOVE layer cakes, they are SO EASY! You can make a whole quilt out of just the squares, or you can cut them up smaller and piece them into something fantastic!
I love all the pre-cuts! I haven't used them yet, because I am too busy petting them! LOL!
Really though, I like the charm squares the best because you can make half square triangles or a 9 patch and get busy making a quilt!
I would love to have a copy of this book! It looks like so much fun! Besides, anything Moda works for me! I am a Moda fabric addict!

My favorite precut might be a tie between charm packs and jelly rolls. Charm packs because I can whip up quick and adorable baby quilts without having to think or cut a single thing (which is awesome). Jelly rolls are also great because you can do many different blocks without too much work - stripes, zig zags, postage stamps, etc. My favorite thing about precuts themselves is that I can get a whole group of coordinating fabric, perfect for a scrappy looking quilt, without having to mix and match from my stash.
I love charm squares. I can do so much with them.
I love fat quarters just because there's so much more to love!
I love jellyrolls. Mostly because their is a lot of tutorials to make quilts from them. I hvane't really tried anything else yet except charm packs.
Rachel@racheltanner.com
I'm so impressed that you have any time to quilt, let alone design, with your busy life! You give me inspiration. Right now my favorite pre-cuts are layer cakes. They make up quickly, and as a result, I was able to make two quilt tops fairly quickly. Honestly though, I love them all. Congratulations on being part of what I'm sure is an awesome book. Can't wait to see it. :)
If my budget isn't involved, I love fat quarters. When I'm being good, though, charm packs are a fun, quick way to get to know a line of fabric :)
Gotta love a fat quarter. So versatile!
I especially love charm packs and fat quarter bundles. I love getting a coordinated variety of fabrics without having to search for them.
I think my favorite is the fat quarters. I love to do everything and that size is versatile
I love the charm packs and jelly rolls but I would like to get into using the turnovers more.......
congrats on being part of the books.............very exciting.........
I am new your blog, but am glad to see working women be able to get a bit of quilting time in and do some fun projects.
Oh, I may need to steal this comment intro (♥ bring sunshine to my day with your comments ♥) for my own blog, I love that sentiment! Too true.
My favorite precut is probably a charm pack. I love how little they are and how easy to make a sweet little patchwork quilt they can be. But honeybuns come in a close second. I just wish they came in more fabric options! I love that width!
I love layer cakes because I am not such an expert sewer and do better with big pieces. And they're pretty!
Love your blog! I check it almost daily. I'm excited to see all the patterns in the book!
i like jelly rolls because they can be squares or stripes or even woven! :) thanks!
Definitely fat quarters for all of the possibility!
I love jelly rolls...you can make so much with it...bags and fast quilts.
Micki
I love ALL Moda pre-cuts! I'm currently working with a jelly roll (my first one), and it sure makes a project go together quickly! Charm squares are lovely to work with, and Fat Quarters are delightful. I have a Layer Cake waiting to be put to use in the near future.
i don't know if i can handle all this excitement. I think I might explode. I have a very serious material obsession.
I have not used any of the pre-cuts yet either, but after looking at all the yummy projects out there, I'd sure like to try! I'd love to have the new book, too!
I love charm squares because right now I am enjoying lots and lot of patchwork so these precuts are perfect for that.
I collect charm packs because they are the perfect size & cute too!
I love layer cakes.
I really like the jelly rolls. As a new quilter they seem to make the cutting easier for many simpler projects.
My email is b_janni at hotmail dot com
You know I never really thought about it that way. I always try to save money by cutting my own fabric, but time is money too!
I love fat quarters. So much potential!
I love charm packs, because I am too pansy to venture into large quilts!! Small is best for me and my little machine:)
I like fat quarters especially bundles as you can make so many differnt things with them.
all pre cuts are great should be a great book
YOU bring sunshine to OUR day with your great projects! Keep up the wonderful work!!
The book looks great!
I love jellyrolls. I think the long strips are so versatile and nice to work with.
Having so much fun with this progressive dinner!~
I love your projects. congratulation for the book. hugs
I love charms!
I love your blog as well as your creations. I would love to win the new book. My favorite pre-cut would have to be the layer cake. I could cut strips,squares, and also use for applique. Just thinking ahead!
Jelly rolls or Layer cakes I can't decide - I want to have my cake and eat it too with jelly ;o). The precuts are great as they allow you to have all the frabric from a collection without having to commit to buying yardage. Contact me at clothkitty@tiscali.co.uk
I like fat quarters and layer cakes. They are so versatile.
I love fat quarters. There are so many possibilities!! :)

I love fat quarter bundles because of all the possibilities that it represents.
Congrats on being published! My favorite precut is the fat quarter because it allows me to change my mind on projects more. I do that a lot. :)
Well, I would have to say that my favorite pre-cuts are jelly rolls. I haven't really done much with any pre-cuts, but I did make a Valentine quilt with a jelly roll last year and it turned out real cute.
i love fat quarters...but charm squares are just sooo cute !!
I'm new to pre-cuts but bought some charm packs last fall. I have an amazing collection of fat quarters though- so many options...
I love fat quarters because of the versatility.
My favorite would have to be fat quarter bundles because I'm always worried about running out of fabric and would rather have extras after finishing a project. You can make just about anything using them!
thetottery(at)gmail(dot)com
Wow! Look how many comments! Thanks for participating in this progressive dinner. A progressive dinner is really fun. Give one a try. My favorite pre-cut is Fat Quarter Bundles. I have the entire fabric line, but have plenty of fabric for most patterns. Again, thank you!
I currently am enjoying charm packs - they just go together so nice and I love how everything matches :)
I love the FQ bundles. I just worked with my first jelly roll and found the pinked edges hard to work with. I guess practice makes perfect?
I like fat quarters best, but sometimes opt for a different pre-cut due to the present project or depth of my wallet at the time.
OI..I'm not sure I can choose just one pre-cut. ;) I think right now, my favorite would be charm squares, as I've done several projects in a row with them. But I also love jelly rolls.
Right now my Fave precut is a toss up between a Jelly roll and a charm pack. Charm pack Because its a great way to get a sample of an entire line. Jelly roll because there so pretty to look at.
Congrats on the book!!
Thanks for the chance
My favorite precut is a tie between a FQ and a jelly roll.
Congrats on the book!!
I just adore pre-cuts and similar to dessert, it's hard to choose just one. Jelly rolls are my current favorite but I bet fat eighths are great. I'll have to try some.
Congratulations on the book. I can't wait to get my copy. I love jelly rolls. They are so yummy and can create such beautiful things!
I love the strips! So easy to use! Also the charm packs! :)
I will have to say my favorite is the jelly rolls but that is all I have used so far. Looking forward to the book and new ideas for other uses!
I cant decide what my favorite is, love layer cakes and fat quarters because you get to see bigger portions of the large print....
Being relatively new to quilting I have decided which precut is my favorite. I have worked with jelly rolls and absolutely love them but I bet I could fall in love with all precuts. Congrats on your new book - can't wait to see it. And that Grand Dessert sounds heavenly!
cheya at gmail dot com
It is so hard to choose my fave precut! I love FQ bundles as they always leave extra fabric for other projects, but I also love jelly Rolls as they make construction so easy and fast!
Right now it's a tie between charms and fat quarters for me. Not having to cut the squares make charms slightly ahead. However for "looking pretty" I'd have to say jelly rolls!
Hi! I love quilting, and am so inspired by all of these new blogs I am finding through this competition. Can't wait for the book to come out! troicecilia@yahoo.com
I think my favorite right now is the Layer Cake. I'm anxiously awaiting my new Central Park layer cake as we speak! I love that you're a dentist because I'm an optometrist! We should set up shop in a strip mall with the eye clinic on one end, the dentist on the other, and the quilt store in between!
I do love all pre-cuts and probably use more Bali-pops, but I do love layer cakes.

I think the jelly rolls are awesome. Any pre-cut bundle is amazing because cutting is probably my least favorite activity and when it comes to quilting it can be a very daunting task. These little guys make it SOOOO much easier! Plus the fabric colors and choices by Moda are great to choose from!
Really like te charm packs for a quick project.
So hard to pick a pre cut favorite...but I guess I tend to buy a lot of charm packs. Not exactly sure why those but that is what I'm drawn too:)
I enjoyed your post. I am a fan of fat quarters but have been known to purchase all other cuts also!
I really like the jelly rolls because they are so simple to use for bindings.
I like charm packs, but I just tried my first jelly roll, and I might have to change my mind. :)
ecisley@comcast.net
-my fave pre cut is the jellyroll for sure! I made tons of runners for Xmas gifts and they were easy pretty and soo IMPRESSIVE!!!
ps thanks for the give away! and the great job you do on your blog all the time!

I like Layer Cakes but buy FQ bundles when I have a larger project in mind.
I love it all, but love, love, love layer cakes...even the flour and sugar kind. :) Congratulations! ~Kelly

I love fat quarters. You can do so much with them! Thanks!
I like all precuts, but my favourite are charm packs to make scrappy quilts.
I love to share my sunshine! My graddaughter is my bright sunshine and she is a treasure to create for. And I love giveways and hope to one day win something!
All the best!
I really enjoy working with jelly rolls because I like the size units you end up with. Love your blog and love the progressive dinner that has lead me to all the wonderful chefs in the book with you. Smiles -
Oh my gosh I got so excited I didn't finish reading your question! My favorite precut is A Morris Tapestry.
Thank you again.
My favorite precut is the layer cake, I find it the most versatile although I am trying to find projects for a number of the jellyrolls I have laying around!
I love jelly rolls and layer cakes right now. I found two great patterns on the Bake Shop for skirts, one for me and one for my daughter, with the jelly rolls, they come together so well and have such a great range of patterns.
my favorite precut at the moment is the layer cake :) helps that I gave up cake for the new year...have to mind the waist! Anyway, I regress....they just seem SO functional!! I LOVE my layer cakes....
I am so so SO excited about the book. I've only been quilting a couple of years and I love all the projects I have tried from MBS. Congrats for your contribution!
congratulations. I prefer jelly rolls, probably because the look so neatly cut. thanks
I'm new to the fabric side of crafting. I have used fat quarters a couple of times and I like them because I can cut them down if I need to. I would love to try some other precut fabrics though!
Thank you for sharing. I enjoyed your story. I love pre cut charm squares because you can get a variety of fabric to enjoy without buying the whole store! (Although that would be fun!) I made a bag out of a purple victorian looking charm square pack and use it for everything. I made one for my sister out of a different charm pack and she loves it too. I also agree with you that pre cuts are faster and easier to work with.
I am torn between the layer cake and the jelly roll but while pinching pennies, I am grateful for the charm pack to get the whole line. So, it's a toss up - just want to get the entire line!!
My favourite precut is a layer cake, I have never had a fat eighth bundle, I would probably love them too. I can't wait to see your project.
My favorite pre-cut is a charm pack. It's right in my price range and I can get all the new fabric!
Sew much fun! :D
I made a top with a charm pack this weekend. I love instant gratification!
I love layer cakes. They are so versatile. You can use them as large squares or you can cut them into smaller charm squares.
Deb S.
I love Charm squares - love em! I can make em bigger blocks, use em for borders, etc. Just feel that they are versatile. Havent used many jelly rolls yet, but i hope to fix that soon :D
I love jelly rolls because that's what I've used the most. I have my first Fat Eighth sitting here ready to be used...who knows, after I try that it may become my favorite! I'm loving the progressive dinner--we used to do these years ago--so fun! debgiro at wildblue dot net
I hadn't hear of progressive dinners either until I moved to a town. I do like me a good potluck though.
I also like charm squares. I get a cute pack of fabrics at great price! Actually I like all the precuts. I'd get more fat quarter packs if I had more closet space and more income!
I love your patterns :) and I think I have you matched on jelly rolls!
I think my favorite fabric pre-cut is the Fat-quarter bundle- I like them because I can do so many projects with them.
Thank you for doing such a great giveaway!
Cheers,

Congratulations! I love the MBS blog and have enjoyed checking out your projects. I am so glad for precuts of all descriptions...less cutting, more constructing.
I have actually never used any pre-cuts but layer cakes sound like they would so much fun to create with. The book sounds really awesome!
I love charm squares! They are my 100 calorie fabric indulgence!
This book is going to be so much fun, can't wait!
You are so talented...I am still trying to make my "creations" more appealing but find I need to follow patterns from someone like you!!!! I am a fan of the fat quarter bundles as the possibilities of design are almost endless.
Congrats on the book !!! It looks wonderful !!
My favorite precut is the layer cake or fat eighths depending on what the budget is :) Love the versatility of the slightly larger cuts.
I've never bought pre-cut fabric before, so it would be great to win some! Congratulations on being included in this great book. And thanks for the giveaway!
My fav. pre-cut are charm packs! I love that they are within my budget and I can have one of EVERY single line if I want and my hubby can't complain!
tpfoley42@msn.com
love jelly rolls - visually delightful
Congratulations! I like the layer cakes due to the size. I find it gives me more flexibility and usage. Thanks!
juels51@yahoo.com
I love layer cakes because I can cut them up into charm packs if the plan changes!
Congratulations on the book!
Wow. When do you find the time to do everything. My favorite precut is still the fat quarter bundle because I get more fabric. I also like the Layer Cake because it is more economical.
I love charms because they are affordable and so easy to use!
My favorite precut, if I could afford it!, would be the fat quarters. I love fabric and that would give me the most of it. :-) But I am brand new to quilting (working on my first with my 9 year old daughter) and am using a layer cake. It is fun too. But I can see benefits to all of them - to fit the specific project. I think they are wonderful!
Thanks for this giveaway. I am new to your blog and curious to look around a bit. Looks fun!
Kori
today my favorite precut is a charm pack, because they're so darn versatile. AND i'm usually flitting about at the last minute trying to make a gift. Charm packs make it easy/peasy. A couple of charm packs, a couple of hours, and VOILA. A quilt.
I'm new to precuts but I'd think jellyroll would be my favorite. Lately my mind is designing in strips! Greatly enjoying this progressive dinner! Thanks!
my favorite pre-cut are layer cakes - I think they are so versatile!
I never have used pre-cuts, but I sure would like to get my hands on some and try them out to see if I would like them.
It is hard to chose. Love the charm packs and jelly rolls the most...I think.
It's a toss up for me between layer cakes and charm packs! I love them both!! Congrats on the spot in the book and thanks for the chance to win!
Your projects are so cute! Congratulations on the book!
I really like the fat quarters but I like charm packs too!! I did though just buy some fat eighths! Can't wait to use them! Thanks for a chance to win!
My fave pre-cuts are the charm packs, especially Sweetwaters or basic gray's
I really love those massive fat quarter packs, the ones that have the whole line in them , heehee. Sadly, they are SO expensive !!
Caroline~
I guess my favorite pre-cuts right now are charm packs and layer cakes. Love the layer cakes because you can cut them down to charm packs and so much more. I have a fat eighth that I bought but I just haven't decided what to use it for yet.
Congrats on the book and the great giveaway!
Congrats on the new book. Can't wait to try out the designs.

I love the Scraps thing you show on your blog. I have millions of flannel scraps from diaper making and am trying to find something wonderful to do with them for my grandchildren
I love fat quarters, maybe just because that is what I am used to but all fabric is good!
Ilove layer cakes. I used one now since I'm new in quilting but it turned out so lovely. Thanks
Loooooooooove jelly rolls! I can't help it!
cecimara78@hotmail.com
My fave precut is a Jelly Roll but I must try those fat eights ...
I like layer cakes. It's so easy to cut so many shapes from them! But charm squares are pretty nice too.
I just can't seem to get away from the charm pack! It is just so versatile!
tiffaniwingert@gmail.com
I love the jelly rolls - they just seem to lend themselves to so many fun projects! Love your blog, and congratulations on the book!

I love layer cakes!
My favorite is Charm Packs because I taught my daughters to sew using them. My 6 year old made her first Charm Pack quilt last summer and won a blue ribbon at the county fair! Thank you for the chance.
I love jelly rolls because they look so yummy all coiled up and then you get to unwind them and find all the great fabrick in there.
I am so new to quilting. I'm just making aprons with the jelly rolls and fat quarters. I hope to make a baby quilt and then by the end of the year, hope to make a quilt for my king-sized bed! yikes! LOL I can't wait for the book. It looks so promising!
Congrats on the book! I am a fan of jelly rolls - I feel as if I can make so many projects out of them.

I love the jelly rolls. Mainly because the quilts I have been making this works the best. But I love how you can sew a bunch together and quickly make different patterns.
I love jelly rolls best, mostly because I love the name! But I'll take fabric any way I can get it. ;)
I'm into fat quarters - it's big enough to do almost any kind of project.
I love the charm packs! They are great to make baby quilts from!
My favorite is charm packs because that's what I've used the most for baby blankets, bags, etc.
I do love fat quarters and jelly rolls, oh and charm packs too. One day i'll have to dig into a layer cake - see what yummy goodness I can conjure up with it :) Thanks for sharing your projects - looking forward to seeing you're creation when the book comes out :)

I love charm packs - so easy to buy and have a lot of variety in my stash. Looking forward to the book's release!
I really like charm packs (and the mini ones!) for grab and go sewing!
OK I have been stating this wrong the whole time. Oh well, my favorite precut is fat quarters, but I use the jellyrolls the most as they are more economical. I do buy fat quarter packs sometimes though. Its just easier to purchase the jellyrolls and they are so easy to use. Looking forward to the book.
My favorite pre-cut is the layer cake, so many options to make amazing blocks!
It might be the layer cake... It's big chunks, you see the fabric well, you can make something on the spot or make smaller parts. It speaks to me, but I like the idea of most of them!

Hello :) I like Jelly Layers! Combining jelly rolls and layer cakes makes so many patterns easier.
I love jelly rolls, there seems to be no end to their creative use.
I've made a couple of jelly roll quilts and love how easy it was. Very little cutting and so fun! Thanks Moda and congrats on the book.
My favorite precuts are the fat quarter bundles because there are just so many possibilities for what you can do with that much fabric.
I love, love the jelly rolls picture!! That is my dream!! Your blog looks great and I will be one of your new followers!!
My fav is the jelly roll. Its the perfect size to make a small little quilt. Plus who doesn't love that awesome ribbon tied around it.
I like charm packs because they can be used for anything (coasters.... up to quilts, I've made them both)!

I love fat quarter bundles the best because I feel like they give me the most flexibility of the precuts. Nothing more frustrating than envisioning a pattern, but you don't have one contiguous piece big enough for part of it!
I've never used a pre-cut, so I don't have a favorite, but I think I'd love a jelly roll.
My favorite would have to be the jelly roll. I have some of all of them but my tower of jelly rolls seems to grow faster than I can use them I just love to look at them stacked on my book shelves. I think my second favorite is the charm packs. It is fun to get a little taste of so many great fabrics.
My favorite pre-cuts are actually Fat Quarters (because they are so versital), however, I do really enjoy/am partially addicted to Jelly Rolls as well. :) Mainly because they save me so much time, but also because with a good Jelly Roll you can get a "taste" of entire fabric collection - without breaking the bank.
Love the MBS Progressive Dinner! I’m always looking for projects to use all these pre-cuts I keep compulsively buying.
