Sandra stitcheries
Hello, I have been working on these
I have problem as I can't decide (need Help) on the 2 jelly rolls which to use to set blocks in
It depends on what effect you would like I suppose. I prefer the jelly roll on the left because the colours are a little more muted, less dense coloured and more to my taste. The ones on the right seem more traditional, if you prefer that.
Isn't this quilting business just chocked full of decisions. At least it's a no lose situation because the jelly roll you don't use for this will be free to be used on another scrumptious project. Tracee xx
Not knowing which is which, but just looking at it, I would go for the left one if you want to have it light with some blue and red accent, and for the right one for a more traditional one. Look forward to see which one you are going to choose!

Sandra I think either would be great.......good work on the stitching.........

What effect are you wanting to achieve?
Countdown to Christmas seems appropriate, I guess it all depends what colour you decorate with at Christmas. They both are gorgeous
I love Countdown to Christmas. It looks great!
Oh what a choice......Can you do another one and use both??? LOL
