Bricks Quilt – Quilt Along Video 1

by 5 Comments

Bricks-Quilt-Imagefinal

For the Bricks Quilt you will need:

  • One Layer Cake
  • Two Charm Packs (solid color that matches Layer Cake).   For example I’m using Bella Solid White Charm Packs because it matches the Windermere Brenda Riddle Designs Moda Fabric.
  • I purchased 5 yards of backing fabric… but you could get by with 4-1/2.  I may add another row to mine if the fabric allows it.  My last Brick Quilt was 14 rows but that was because the fabric did not allow me to add another row (there were several solids pieces that could not be used because I couldn’t add a solid to a solid).
  •  1/2 yard of binding fabric.
  • You will use 35 of the Layer Cake squares and 70 Charm Pack squares.

Quilt measures:  64 x 72  if you make it 14 rows (you can make it larger or smaller depending on your rows).

  • Make sure your Layer Cake and Charm Packs are turned on the correct side before you cut the fabric.
  • Cut 35 Layer Cakes at 5″ and each rectangle will measure 5 x 10 giving you a total of 70 (I cut all of mine because I may switch them out when I place it on my Design Wall).
  • Group all your rectangles by color (pinks, greens, grays, yellows, blues …etc).


In the next video we’ll be sewing the Charm Packs to the Rectangles.

  1. Now that our quilt  top is complete we need to check it for holes and trim all the threads.
  2. Measure for backing and binding fabric using the Robert Kaufmann Quilting Calculator (app on iPhone).
  3. Press your Quilt and use Starch.
  4. Take the Quilt Top, Backing Fabric, Binding Fabric to a long arm quilter to complete.
  5. Optional:  If you want a label on the back of your quilt, also take it to the long arm quilter.

Here’s a picture of the quilt … please ignore the wrinkles!  I did not have time to iron this round of quilts … next time I will be sure to take pictures before I wash them.

  2. When you reach the end … lift foot on sewing machine and pull back just a tad, giving  you room to sew the next one.

  5. Repeat this to the very end.
  6. When you reach the end you will need to snip the threads where you sewed then together.
  7. Find both ends of your long strip (1600″).
  8. Take the beginning of the first strip and the end of the last strip, place them right sides together and sew 1/4 seam down the right side.
  9.  Stop often and make sure your fabric is straight.
  10. This step will take a while.
