This is the fabric I’ve chosen for my next project …… it’s Mixed Bag by Studio M.
I’m making the Layer Cake Quilt and this one will be pattern 2 … click here to view Pattern 1.
My first step is I’m going to cut all the 10″ squares and I’ll end up with …
- 42 pieces that measure 4 x 10
- 42 pieces that measure 6 x 6
- 42 pieces that measure 6 x 4
Some one ask me when I find time to quilt … the answer is …. I squeeze in time whenever I can. For example … cooking dinner … I rush over to my sewing machine… while the food is cooking. You’d be amazed at how much you can get done sewing for 5 or 10 minutes (as long as the fabric is pre-cut). If the meal takes an hour to cook or prepare .. that usually gives me at least 20 minutes of sewing …. maybe more.
I’m not sure when I’ll start the quilt …..but it’s on the dining room table calling my name!! I’m headed to my office now to film some videos for Stamp Club Online and Chic n Clique ….. I pray my strength holds out long enough for me to get them all filmed.
See ya!

How much fabric of each design do you purchase for the Layer Cake quilt? You probably mentioned it somewhere, but I thought I would ask anyway. It’s been awhile since I did any quilting other than simple patchwork and I am really getting enthused watching your quilting site. It can be very addicting.

I just love both of your sites, never was a quilter until chic clique glad I joined it and soon my quilt will be done thanks to you. I’m so glad you are feeling better and hope it continues to improve. Thanks for all your help. I also did some past sewing but never a quilt I’m so glad I found chic n scratch which led me to chic clique. You are such a wonderful teacher and thank you for that.
