60 x 70
Moda Persimmon Jelly Roll was used to make this gorgeous quilt. I used the whole jelly roll plus a little textured tan scraps to make this quilt 1 row bigger. You can find the original pattern here. I'm glad I did as it works fine even with an even row pattern. You know a pattern that takes 2 rows to complete it. Well, this quilt is 6 x 7. I think it works in this case because the fabrics aren't too bright.
I had to redo 2 blocks with the navy print because it stood out too much. It was the blocks with the larger corner pieces. But I did leave in the blocks with the navy diagonal. They don't stand out too much.
The cutting of the jelly roll lends itself to leftover pieces, which I used on the back to extend this wide fabric to fit the quilt. I love to add color to the back.

A beautiful finish! I really love the strips of strips down the back, too.
