City Slicker is a Jelly Roll friendly pattern that has casual charm and subtle sophistication. The quilt is created with a single block, no sashing required! The secondary design that is created when the blocks comes together is a pleasant surprise. City Slicker makes a great retreat project using chain piecing to speed the up the process of making the blocks, and only requiring a design wall or floor space to lay things out in the final step. A Jelly Roll typically contains 40-42 strips, so the pattern was designed in two sizes. The smaller size using 36 strips and the larger 42 strips. The background of the quilt can also be made from a contrasting jelly roll or yardage. Our gallery images really highlight how any colour combination works well with this pattern. Whether you have a few jelly rolls in your stash or looking for an excuse to visit your local quilt shop and pick up a new roll in a favorite collection, this pattern can help you create a new quilt quickly using fabrics you love.
