Jelly Roll FAQs

Are jelly roll strips always exactly 2.5 inches wide?

They are commonly sold as nominal 2.5-inch strips, but pinked edges and manufacturer cutting methods can affect how the strip is measured. Follow the manufacturer or pattern directions when precision matters.

How long is a jelly roll strip?

Strip length generally follows the width of the original fabric, so it can vary. Do not assume every strip from every manufacturer has an identical usable length.

Can international customers order jelly roll fabric?

International ordering is available for supported destinations shown at checkout. Shipping methods and rates are calculated for the destination during checkout.

Can jelly roll strips be used for binding?

Yes, 2.5-inch strips are commonly used for quilt binding when that strip width matches your preferred binding method. Confirm that the bundle includes enough total length for your quilt perimeter.
