    Default Just Bought a Layer Cake so Now What Do I Do With It?

    I'm trying to branch out to making different types of quilts so I thought I would try a layer cake. I love the colors, lavenders & pale greens. Any suggestions on types of quilts to make?

    There are several books and patterns specifically for precuts. I have this one and found it fun.

    If you want to try a super easy and pretty pattern, try the Double Slice Layer Cake pattern. Here is the tutorial...

    It's called Tea House by Benartex. I bought it from Missouri Quilting Company.

    I think either the 'Double Slice' or 'In a Jiffy' would be nice.
