For novice quilters, you can first make a mock board for your quilt design. This will give you an overview of what your finished quilt will look like. It may take some time, but it will help you lessen the chances of wasting your jelly rolls. Start with a small quilt project first. Then, lay out the fabric strips according to your desired pattern. Once you are happy with your design. You may secure them with straight pins. If you want to skip this part, you can proceed with strip stitching. Connect all the fabrics according to your pattern. After each part, set it aside in the position where you first put them. This will make your pattern organized. After strip stitching the fabrics, you can now do the quilting process. Iron the stitched fabrics for easier quilting. Make it a habit to iron your quilt sandwich before you proceed with quilting. This makes the layers adhere well. Baste your quilt sandwich or pin the middle and the sides to ensure the fabrics will not shift. Always recheck your stitches. Make sure they are even and aligned. Don’t be too hard on yourself. If you have a few errors, let them pass. Learn from those mistakes so you can avoid them on your next project. Practice whenever possible. You can always start with small quilts. This will help you get familiar with quilt scaling such as using inch-blocks and fat quarters.
