Ashley Nickels shares a simple, modern approach to designing your own pixelated jelly roll quilt top, with lots of time-saving tricks built into the process. You will learn how to lay out your quilt on a design wall, and then chain-piece the squares without having to pin or clip. Best of all, there’s no ironing until the very end, so you can speed through the piecing process in a flash. Ashley demonstrates this process on a crib-sized quilt top, but it’s easy to make this quilt smaller or larger—after all, you’re the designer.

Here’s what you’ll need:
- Michael Miller Top 40 Solid Jelly Roll (choose at least 25 colors for this quilt)

- Sewing machine with ¼” foot

I loved the connected chain piecing technique. It REALLY helps you keep the quilt organized as you make it! Seriously a game changer for me.
