Jelly Roll Quilts

I make charity quilts for an online group called Sunshine Quilters. These quilts go to Wrap A Smile sponsored by the Wells Rotary in Me.  Then they are shipped out to countries where Wrap-A-Smile is going in order to perform corrective surgery on children/infants who need cleft pallet repair.  These quilts are used as OR/recovery room blankets and given to each child to take home.  I did not meet my personal goal last year so have been working hard to make more this year.  It's my way of giving back.  At our last meeting our quild, CAMACO Quilters decided to have a quilting day in March featuring jelly roll races.  I looked up jelly roll quilts on the Net and have made 8 of my own version of the jelly roll quilt using 3.5" strips.  They are great as the help to use up my stash and are fairly quick to piece.  Here are some of them.
