My favorite quilt for layer cakes is the Double Slice Layer Cake from Missouri Star. Here is a video on making it:

I don't always use a layer cake. Often I just cut my own ten inch squares. But this has become one of my favorite quilts. Let me find a few pictures.
This quilt goes together VERY quickly.
