What if your colors went THIS way?

Usually, color travels AROUND.

Traditional jelly roll rugs naturally carry color around the rug as the fabric tube spirals outward.

Forest Fade makes it travel ACROSS.

I wanted my colors to move across the rug instead, like they'd been painted across the surface.

The secret? I don't make the entire fabric tube first.

I build it one section at a time, choosing where each new color will appear as I sew.

Everything you need to make your own

A multi-page instructional ebook about creating jelly roll rugs, showing steps for designing, building, and adding color to a Jelly Roll Rug.

Inside you'll learn how to:

  • Plan your three-color design

  • Control where each new color appears

  • Build your fabric tube one section at a time

  • Create an organic fade without hard stripes

  • Add accent colors naturally

  • Finish your rug intentionally

The Forest Fade Workbook walks you through the entire technique with real photos from my rug, so you can keep it beside your sewing machine as you work.

This workbook is for you if...

✓ You're already comfortable making an oval jelly roll rug
✓ You want to get more creative with color placement
✓ You like having step-by-step photos beside you while you sew
✓ You want to create your own version rather than follow a rigid row-by-row color map

One thing to know

Forest Fade is a technique workbook, not a beginner jelly roll rug pattern.

It assumes you already know the basics of constructing an oval jelly roll rug. Instead, I'll teach you the build-as-you-go color technique I used to create the Forest Fade effect.

Your colors. Your size. Your fade.
No two need to be exactly alike.
