Some of the ladies in the Family got together for a
Jelly Roll Race

Hosted by Jacque
 Thank you Jacque for allowing us to come to your home.

You start with a Jelly Roll


Or cut 40-2 1/2 inch strips 


Sew them end to end
(Some used a 2 1/2 in square to connect)


You now have a pile of strips 


Put both ends, right sides together and get them untangled and you are ready for the Race.
