I had made a jelly roll race quilt the traditional way with 45 degree angles joining the strips. I wanted to do something different. I was shopping for a jelly roll when I mentioned that thought to the quilt store clerk. She said she just saw an idea she thought was clever. She showed me the magazine with a picture of a quilt that used triangles to connect the strips. I thought to myself, "I can do this." So I did it. The triangles are a light shade of tan, not white as it looks in the photo. The jelly roll was made up of supposedly Christmas fabrics, but I took out several strips that said Merry Christmas and I think it will be a year round sofa quilt.
