I Couldn't Resist

 Sometimes I just can't help myself.

Wouldn't you know it that someone we know is having a baby?

I couldn't resist making something quilty.

I decided on matching doll quilts for the new big sister and her soon to arrive little sister.

Granted, the baby won't be able to play with hers for a while.

The pattern is called jelly roll race.

A jelly roll is a pre-cut fabric package of 42, 2 1/2" wide strips.

I cut my own strips from fabric in my stash.

It's incredibly fast and easy!

No thinking, just sewing.

I will definitely make this pattern again.

I wanted the backs to be similar and yet have each one distinguishable from the other.

A little breeze and some curious ducks.

These quilts are roughly the same size at 19" x 20".
