I made this quilt when it came out as a mystery quilt from the Jolly jabber four years ago. It is part of my Christmas holiday decorations, and hangs in my front hall every holiday. I love it.
Oh boy! Here we go. These videos are going to be great as a reference. I always struggle with cutting my fabric efficiently so I love that you showed a clear plan when cutting the fabric for this block. Thanks FQS!
Thank you for explaining that a reason to square up each block as you sew is to not have those threads show through in the finished quilt. That makes sense to me and makes me want to do the same!
I didn't have Christmas Jelly Roll that would work and was about to order something. I have a huge stash of yardage and decided to use what I had on hand. (I will use my cc for supplies on a different quilt-along) I am So excited to see what Stonehenge Blues with White background will look on this Mystery pattern. Thanks for giving us this great Christmas Gift
This looks fun! I’m gonna jump in as soon as I find a Christmas jelly roll that I like! I love that you showed the entire process from start to finish, including the sewing! Makes it much easier to follow along! ❤️
I have so many projects started. Over a dozen quilts ready to be quilted, 25 in progress, and 10 or more ready to start! That is the sign of a twisted mind!
Okayyyy, I am going to go completely out of the lines on this one. I am using Christmas leftovers from years past and using a black background 😬. Fingers crossed. My daughter is sewing along w us and using up more of the Christmas leftovers , she’s using a muslin background. Soooo interesting this will be.
Thank you, Kimberly for the tips and tricks! I ended up cutting my jelly roll strips so they were 2-1/2 inches wide like you did! I'm hoping to get these 4 blocks done by Thursday. We have two new puppies in our home so they have kept us hopping. Roxy from Hudson, WI
I love how you cut out your fabric. I also love to watch you sew. You do such a great job that it makes it look so easy. I’ve never quilted a quilt but have quilted a zippered bag. The fabric you chose is adorable. I think I will try and make a quilt this winter when all my outside gardens are finished for the year. Thank you for sharing how you do your fabric & how you cut and sew it. 🇺🇸Happy 4th of July! 🇺🇸 PS - I need to order that roller presser. It looks amazing.
Love it but I do not have a Christmas jelly roll but I am going to use the Jelly Roll I have on hand! I have think it is Little Snippets - now I need 2.5 yards background.
Hi Kimberly! I just wanted to say thank you for this video! It’s amazing!! 💗💗💗 I was able to sew up perfectly sized blocks. I’m using leftover Christmas fabric from years ago. I can’t wait for next Thursday. Thank you again.
Awesome job, Kimberly as usual! Love the block and your tutorial is always spot on! I did the one last year too and it was so much fun. Can't wait to start this one hopefully today!
Kimberly is using the Juki ¼” Edge Guide Compensating Foot For TL Series Machines - www.sewvacdirect.com/juki-edge-guide-compensating-foot-for-tl-series-machines/ and she uses the Juki TL-2010Q sewing machine: amzn.to/2onygue
Happy Christmas in July! Thanks Kimberly and FQS team for this exciting and FREE sew along. You spoil your customers so much and I love it! Happy 4th of July too 💥 💥💥
Beautiful quilt, I was wondering if you made the smaller design boards you used in this video? or maybe have a tutorial for making one, I had to pack majority of my crafting supplies & sewing notions after hurricane Ian and I want to make a few things to have in a camper, Thanks Ginny
Trying to patiently wait for the Chill fabric to come in before making this.....it isn't working well, but we all know how that goes :) Wonderful tutorial and I can't wait to start making it (hurry Moda!)
I have a question. I layered my four strips and cut the A’s and B’s. For the C squares, the pattern says to cut three, which would give me twelve squares. Don’t I need 16 squares? If I am making four- patch blocks, I would need four colored squares and four white squares. Four colored squares times four strips should be 16 squares, not 12. Am I not thinking correctly?
Hello Bindy! Kimberly used a Compensating 1/4" foot for Juki TL Series" www.sewvacdirect.com/juki-edge-guide-compensating-foot-for-tl-series-machines/. It is only for Juki machines.
Hello G Wenna! Kimberly is using the Juki ¼” Edge Guide Compensating Foot For TL Series Machines - www.sewvacdirect.com/juki-edge-guide-compensating-foot-for-tl-series-machines/
Hello! Kimberly prefers to use a 1.75 stitch length because it provides more strength which in the end helps her quilts last longer. Kimberly uses the Juki TL-2010Q sewing machine: amzn.to/2onygue
Hello Pam! Here is the foot that Kimberly used: Compensating 1/4" foot for Juki TL Series" www.sewvacdirect.com/juki-edge-guide-compensating-foot-for-tl-series-machines/ Here is a link to the foot Kimberly typically uses Universal ¼” foot with guide on the Juki TL2010: amzn.to/1jywCOE
Fat Quarter Shop yep....Yes...I see you used different reds....I used the same reds. They look amazing. This is so exciting! Thank you for all your hard work and wonderful vids and patterns 😻😻😻
Kimberly, please tell me the name of the presser foot you are using. It looks like it prevents the fabric from passing under the right hand side, to get a perfect 1/4” seam. Also, is it only available fir the Juki? Love your awesome videos!
What sewing machine is Kimberly using? OMG! I NEED that foot! No wonder can she sew so fast!! Please and thank you re: the machine. My Fabric is ironed and ready to be cut and sewn.
Hello, I just wanted to ask if the Faultless Heavy Hold will work for the starching the fabric as that is all I can find. ?? Do I spray the fabric as much as you do. ??
Hello Geraldine! Lilly uses that one. If you spray more lightly and only on one side you can get the same results as Kimberly does with spraying the Original heavily.
Hi Quick question...rather than a jelly roll of different fabrics, I'd like to do a metallic white fabric with a light blue background. Since this is a mystery quilt, I don't know if that will work. Do you think it will? Thanks so much

Hi Kimberly. I love all your videos. Helping me learn so much. I'm a beginner quilter and have a question. How would I go about increasing the finished size on this quilt?
Hello Terri! Edyta Sitar of Laundry Basket Quilts has instructions listed on her blog for how to increase your quilt size. www.laundrybasketquilts.com/blog/quilting-along-jelly-snowflake/
I made this quilt when it came out as a mystery quilt from the Jolly jabber four years ago. It is part of my Christmas holiday decorations, and hangs in my front hall every holiday. I love it.
Oh boy! Here we go. These videos are going to be great as a reference. I always struggle with cutting my fabric efficiently so I love that you showed a clear plan when cutting the fabric for this block. Thanks FQS!
My kingdom for that presser foot! lol And with the fabric being starched, it sews up so nicely.
I like your tip to cut the background fabric into smaller chunks to starch! And your visual about shrinkage using the strips. Thank you!
Thank you for explaining that a reason to square up each block as you sew is to not have those threads show through in the finished quilt. That makes sense to me and makes me want to do the same!
Who knew it would be so fun to watch someone sew a block beginning to end...no cutaways...💗
I didn't have Christmas Jelly Roll that would work and was about to order something. I have a huge stash of yardage and decided to use what I had on hand. (I will use my cc for supplies on a different quilt-along) I am So excited to see what Stonehenge Blues with White background will look on this Mystery pattern.

Great tip about cutting the jelly roll strips to 2.5 inches. I always assumed they measured 2.5 all the time! 👍🏽❤
There would hardly be any sense in paying the cost of precuts if you can't trust the company to accurately cut the fabric! Buy elsewhere.
This looks fun! I’m gonna jump in as soon as I find a Christmas jelly roll that I like! I love that you showed the entire process from start to finish, including the sewing! Makes it much easier to follow along! ❤️
Love this block. Kimberly your company is the best. I love doing business with you. Thank you for all the free videos and directions.
Like I need another project! Running out to get my fabric today. This can't come at a better time, something to look forward to!
I have so many projects started. Over a dozen quilts ready to be quilted, 25 in progress, and 10 or more ready to start! That is the sign of a twisted mind!
Brandi Covey LoL! Not twisted, just very creative! 🧵 ✂️ 🧵
Okayyyy, I am going to go completely out of the lines on this one. I am using Christmas leftovers from years past and using a black background 😬. Fingers crossed. My daughter is sewing along w us and using up more of the Christmas leftovers , she’s using a muslin background. Soooo interesting this will be.
Great idea. I have Christmas jelly roll strips left over. I may do the same.
What is the finished size of the quilt?
Your videos are extremely well done and easy to follow. Love the timer at the top! Thank you for all you do.
Love that you are using the cute little rolling pin that came in our monthly FQ box!
I'm so very excited to join the Jelly Snow Flake Mystery Quilt group! My fabric should arrive today, and I am just so excited!!!
still working on beepatriotic, but love the chance to switch up and start on this too...
Thank you so much for the beautiful free patterns
Great camera work while Kimberly is sewing. Spot on!! 👍

A Christmas in July sew along, yippee! I cannot wait to see how this turns out. Thanks FQS.
Love it but I do not have a Christmas jelly roll but I am going to use the Jelly Roll I have on hand! I have think it is Little Snippets - now I need 2.5 yards background.

Fat Quarter Shop is that a scant 1/4” or accurate 1/4”?
Hi Denise, that is an accurate 1/4" foot.
waiting on my Jelly roll to come in can t wait
Oh, so pretty!!! And so Exciting!!! Thank You So Much!!!
Can’t wait to get home tonight and make this block x 4.
Cute block Kimberly and am excited to start this block....thanks
Thanks for sharing, love them!
Thankyou for the pattern. Just got to get the jelly roll and the rest of the fabric. Xxx
I can't wait to get started this evening!
This will be a great weekend project! I'm so excited!
Thank you FQS, for always having such great projects!
Oh how exciting, a Christmas sew along! Thank you. 🐢
Pretty and festive.
Wonderful tutorial as always Kimberly 🤗❤️
Yeah! My first FQS sew along!, I am sew excited. Thank you Kimberly and FQS 👏❤️🎄🥰
Lovely block, going to start on the weekend. I like your design board, great idea. Did you do a tutorial on making them? Thank you 😊
Hello Sandy! Here is the tutorial on how to make a design board: ua-cam.com/video/1nSZtoionpA/v-deo.html
Fat Quarter Shop ...Thank you so much 😊
I didn’t have wood so I used a strong cardboard. Just have to be careful not to bend. Lol
@@alaskaway9076 I used thick posterboard. Works well too!
I can't wait to get started. Great tutorial. Thanks Kimberly.
Happy Christmas in July! Thanks Kimberly and FQS team for this exciting and FREE sew along. You spoil your customers so much and I love it! Happy 4th of July too 💥 💥💥
Thank you. You make it look so easy and perfect.
Great block and instructions!
I love this! The Deer Christmas Collection is super cute!
Love the fabric!
Thank you!

Kimberly, great video. I'm going to join in on the fun🤶🎅🌲
This looks fun!!
❤️❤️❤️ can’t wait to make my own blocks tonight after work!! Thank you so much Kimberly !!
Thank you! Love this from 🇬🇧
So excited! Will it have a Christmas theme or can I use any jelly roll I already have?
Hi Kimberly, would I be able to use a white jelly roll as the background fabric for the whole quilt?
She showed that on last weeks? live stream
Hello Linda! You would be able to use a white jelly roll as the background fabric for the whole quilt.
Thank you Kimberly!
I don’t think you can use a jelly roll for the whole background. Block 2 has a center square that’s larger than 2&1/2”?
Adorable! Can't wait to start!
How fun ❄🎄 ☃
So excited to get started !
I'm late gotta go startch ... thank u for these awesome sew alongs

It's sew cute! Thanks FQS y'all are the best!
How fun!!
Kimberley I ❤️❤️ this block and your blouse is gorgeous ❤️❤️
still waiting on my fabric to arrive from the FQS. Its been shipped can't wait to get started!!
Any thoughts on making this out of flannel? Too thick?
Hello Jerri! You can try it out with flannel, the seams will be bulky but if you don't mind that, go for it.
I have a question. I layered my four strips and cut the A’s and B’s. For the C squares, the pattern says to cut three, which would give me twelve squares. Don’t I need 16 squares? If I am making four- patch blocks, I would need four colored squares and four white squares. Four colored squares times four strips should be 16 squares, not 12. Am I not thinking correctly?
I have all my fabric!! I've been waiting for it to begin. It's finally here! Yay!
Thank you Kimberly. I look forward to next Thursday❤️❤️❤️
So excited to get started🥰
Very cute
Me encantó. I loved your all work, is very beautiful☺
Would that presser foot fit a brother dram machine? If so is it in the shop?
Hello Bindy! Kimberly used a Compensating 1/4" foot for Juki TL Series" www.sewvacdirect.com/juki-edge-guide-compensating-foot-for-tl-series-machines/. It is only for Juki machines.
Fat Quarter Shop oh dang! Thanks for your reply!
So cute! Can’t wait for the rest!
Time to raid my stash!
Me too. Not using Christmas fabrics either
Thank you ☺️
So excited! Thanks for the little tips and reminders along the way. 💖
Where did you get your new foot for your Juki TL2010q machine?
Hello G Wenna! Kimberly is using the Juki ¼” Edge Guide Compensating Foot For TL Series Machines -
www.sewvacdirect.com/juki-edge-guide-compensating-foot-for-tl-series-machines/
Why such a minuscule stitch length? Also, what kind of machine is that? I love the seam guide!
Hello! Kimberly prefers to use a 1.75 stitch length because it provides more strength which in the end helps her quilts last longer. Kimberly uses the Juki TL-2010Q sewing machine: amzn.to/2onygue
Can you make strips from fat quarters- will the pieces be long enough?
Do you dye test your red fabrics for running.
Hello Carol! Kimberly does not dye test her fabrics for running.
Looks like a fun block to sew! But I still need to choose fabric...oh no!
Yay! It’s time to start!!!
Can you use fat quarters instead of a jelly roll?
Hello Faye! Yes, you can use fat quarters instead of a jelly roll.
Thank you this is fantastic. Please can you tell me which quarter inch foot you use?
Hello Pam! Here is the foot that Kimberly used: Compensating 1/4" foot for Juki TL Series" www.sewvacdirect.com/juki-edge-guide-compensating-foot-for-tl-series-machines/
Here is a link to the foot Kimberly typically uses Universal ¼” foot with guide on the Juki TL2010: amzn.to/1jywCOE
I have used the same fabric for all 4. Will that work? 🤔🤞 love this....thank you 😻
Hello Vicky! Are you asking if it is okay that you used the same fabric for your four blocks?
Fat Quarter Shop yep....Yes...I see you used different reds....I used the same reds. They look amazing. This is so exciting! Thank you for all your hard work and wonderful vids and patterns 😻😻😻
What do you use to make your design board? I love this idea.
Hello Beachbaby! Here is a tutorial on how to make your design board: ua-cam.com/video/1nSZtoionpA/v-deo.html

This is great!! You give such amazing tips Kimberly! What is the pins you recommended please?
Hello Nancie! Kimberly recommended the Clover 100 Count Patchwork Glasshead Pins Size 23 - www.fatquartershop.com/clover-patchwork-pins-clover-232
for the background can we use a jelly roll as well? Just wondering if in the other blocks we will be using widths wider than 2.5".
Hello Mary! Yes, some of the background widths are wider than 2.5", but you can piece together JR strips to make them if you need.
What do you guys think about making these blocks scrappy? Would it work? I am using the Flutter and Shine by Riley Blake Jelly Roll.
Hello Kayla! That sounds like a great idea. As Kimberly would say, "You do you"
Where can I get that presser foot?? I need something with that physical barrier
Hello Mae! Here is the link to the foot that Kimberly used: www.kenssewingcenter.com/juki-compensating-foot-for-tl-series.html#
