For the next two quilts is in the works - 
I decided to quilt two on the same backing again -  
Upstairs/Downstairs - Christmas Red - 
And -  
Upstairs/Downstairs - Christmas Green - 
These two quilts used the SAME jelly rolls - 
And I made the SAME strata sets - 
But I switched the RED MAIN diagonal for a GREEN one -
And reversed the order of the RED and GREEN strips - HERE -  
I like how different they look just by changing ONE element in the pattern - 
Anyway - 
I chose a GREEN backing for both - 
Which my camera wants to make BLUE for some reason -  
And GREEN thread to match the backing - 
It will show a little on the front - 
But should blend in nicely on the back -  
I had to add a panel to make the backing long enough for both quilts - 
And I'll have to add a couple of panels to increase the width - 
Because I messed up when I placed my order - 
And I came up short - 
Oh, well - it's not like I don't have a stash available - 
To solve the problem - LOL - ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

I'm so glad your new setup is working so well for you. You are getting a lot done!
Fantastic! The two at a time seems to be working well for you. I will be curious to see what quilting designs you decide to use of these.
You are a brave woman. I think I would screw up loading such a long backing. Proud of all your progress!
So genius on how you switched up the colorway of the two quilts using the same jelly roll. I adore both of these festive tops! You've doe a fantastic job! Happy quilting! -Andrea
