The Hello Darling Layer Cake was made into the Double Slice Layer Cake Quilt.
It measures 53 x 63.
I’ll need 4-1/2 yards of backing fabric and 1/2 yard of binding fabric and then I’ll take it to my long arm quilter.
If you look real closely … you will find I made a mistake. In my defense it was the first Double Slice Layer Cake Quilt I’ve made and I had no clue how many blocks went across and down … I figured out the hard way it should have been 6 blocks across and 7 down.
Question for you today ….
Would you be interested in participating in my Double Slice Layer Cake Quilt Along (it’s free)? Let me know your thoughts!
See ya~
Love your new quilt and, yes, to the quilt along! Oops, I guess that means I’ll have to buy more fabric!
Have a great day!
Yes, I would love to participate in your layer cake quilt-along. Would love to make the quilt you are showcasing today.
Yes, I would like to participate in the quilt along. Your quilt turned out really nice.
Hi Angie,
Very pretty quilt. I sent my quilt top to Missouri Star Quilt Co. They received it today and they are going to quilt it for me and then I will finish the binding myself. I’m getting the swirls put on it. This is my second lap quilt. The first one I did the quilting part with just straight lines but this one I made for my daughter and I wanted it to look professional and I will get that with the swirls.
Thanks for the inspiration. I have a winter quilt that I’m itchin’ to get started but I think that will have to wait until October’s camping vacation. I’ll take my machine with me. We may be spending family quality time in the camper if it rains.
I love it.
Angie,
I forgot to ask, do you have to piece your backing to get it to be large enough to cover the back? I only made small lap quilts and the fabric was large enough to cover the back .
Thanks,
Lesa
Hi Lesa,
I’m not sure … I take my Quilt Top, Backing Fabric and backing fabric to Shirley and she does the rest. I don’t see a seam on the back …. so it appears she didn’t cut the 4-1/2 yards.
okay , Thank You. I think I will use my Winter Village to do the Layer Cake.
What a great looking Quilt. Yes I would love to Quilt a long
