I love Jolly Bars, they are 5x10 precuts, and they make great fast quilts!  This is the 3rd Jolly Bar Book to come out, and I have made several things from each of them, they are a must have for your library! 

To celebrate the Jolly Bar Book Volume 3, Fat Quarter Shop is hosting the Jolly Bar 3 Quilt Along, that means we all get to make an adorable table runner together!  All you need is the new Jolly Bar Book series – Volume 3 a Jolly Bar and some background fabric, the fabric requirements and all the details are below.  The Jolly Bar Book Volume 3 includes 20 quilt patterns designed just for our exclusive 5″ x 10″ Jolly Bar precuts,

Starting Monday, April 5, 2021, we’ll be sewing a different block each week for eight weeks. The piece we’re making uses a sampling of blocks from the book, and all together they make an exquisite tablerunner that measures 22.5″ x 80.5″. 

Fabric Requirements
  • One Jolly Bar 
  • 1 ⅞ yards for Background, Sashing & Borders 
  • Fat Quarter Accent Fabric (Paradox Blocks) 
  • ⅝ yard for Binding 
  • 2 ¼ yards for Pieced Backing

And just to make things a little more fun, I will share with you some of my behind the seams pictures from the long arm.  I was lucky enough to quilt some of the quilts featured on the book cover and inside the book too!  
I have some quilty friends sewing along with me, you should follow along for lots of inspiration, since we will all be using different fabrics.

    Hey y'all,
    I'm Gina Tell...

    Thanks for checking out with my blog!  ​I started quilting around 2003 when I first moved to Austin Texas, and I knew absolutely nothing about a sewing machine! My journey started with lots of mistakes, and questions, because social media tutorials didn't really exist at that time.  I will be telling some of the ridiculous stories of my early sewing days, some handy sewing tips, and sharing some of the fun sewing projects I do for the Fat Quarter Shop!
