The New Years Day Mystery is a 44" x 56" quilt called Apple Butter completed on 1/1/16. It is a GREAT beginner quilt, and will help you use up all those annoying jelly rolls you have collected:-)) A jelly roll is usually a group of 40 strips 2-1/2" wide by the width of fabric, 4 of each color or print. You won't use the whole thing so if you don't have 4 strips of any particular print, just substitute something similar. You will also need the (3) different fat quarters and 2/3 of a yard for borders.
If you don't have a jelly roll, alternatives are given in the pattern.
The SuperBowl Sunday Mystery will make a larger quilt, and the fabric requirements are a little more elaborate. The directions are here
Notes on this mystery:
WOF means Width of Fabric. A 1/4" seam is assumed. Please check this ahead of time! If you sew (2) 2-1/2" strips together, your new 3-part strip should measure 6-1/2" wide after pressing. If it does not, you need to correct your seam allowance before starting this mystery.
