BOOKLIST July 2018 
Fabric manufacturers want to make it easy for quilters to combine colors and patterns; Moda, for one, branded their Jelly Roll, a precut bundle of fabric strips that are designed to go well together (other companies use similar names for their bundles). This book, which contains content from three of Forster's previous books (Little Quilts & Gifts from Jelly Roll Scraps, 2015;​ Jelly Roll Scraps, 2014; Sew Jelly Roll Quilts & Gifts,2012), provides a typical introduction to basic quilting techniques and materials followed by 68 projects (24 of which are full quilts) made using Jelly Rolls or scraps from them. Each project includes a materials and supplies list, the item's finished dimensions, and a list of instructions. A knowledge of basic quilting techniques is assumed; the instructions are minimal. Some feature process photos, but most do not. Some of the items, including all of the quilts, include diagrams for piecing. A treat for Jelly Roll enthusiasts, this will find use where quilting books are popular. -- Anne Heidemann
