Check out Moda Bakeshop - it is loaded with pre-cut easy projects - you would be surprised how much is there - also check Bonnie Hunters blog - she uses scraps but her patterns are step by step with pics so very easy to follow along - Bonnie has a pattern called scrappy bargello - your layer cakes would work for that. Another good site with pre-cut patterns is Missouri Star Quilt Co - they have tons of charm pack and layer cake patterns - you could make a lot with your layer cakes - good luck and don't forget to show us your quilt.

This would look great in solids! I should think you could start with squares of any size and just go for it.

Hmmmm! Why is it that I finally find the right thing and then have to buy more cloth? This time it would be the Moda Honey Bun (1.5 strips) in black. I never can have things sent here to India because postage costs so much. Once again this would require waiting until we come home next year. Groan!

I made one of these, and the pattern truly is not hard, once you see how it goes together...
