What would you make with the Imperial Gardens Layer Cake?

[Vonnie]

It's one of the specials today.

View All - Missouri Quilt Co.

I told myself if I can come up with a pattern that I will buy it.

M* shows 4 different coordinating solids to go with it. I'm leaning towards the green.

But I need a pattern to know how much to get.

I'm stumped.

What would you make with it?

Just wanted to add that I just spent an hour going through Karen's list of tutorials! LOL - Karen that's a great list!

Wow! I love oriental prints. You showed the page of coordinates and my favorite is the butterflies and the bamboo. But I didn't see these in the layer cake thumbnail. Wonder why?

Duh, must be too sleepy! I looked again, and answered my own question. The butterflies are from another collection, called Imperial Collection. At least they go with the Imperial Gardens layer cake!

I'm very new to the quilting world so my go to patterns are a bit on the simpler side.... but when I seen the fabrics, I thought about the Lattice quilt.

I watched that tutorial this morning. That's a good one. Also got me to thinking of the Honeycomb Tumbler with the green sashing.

Decisions, decisions! LOL Which do you think would be prettier?

I would actually go with a pattern where you don't have to cut up the fabrics into too small pieces, as the prints look so lovely.

So how about a tumbler quilt? Or triangle quilt? Or even one with big HSTs?

BQ 2 is lovely with Asian-inspired fabrics: http://www.mapleislandquilts.com/ima...rge/MIQ965.jpg

Okay - I did it!

I bought the layer cake: https://www.missouriquiltco.com/shop...ens-layer-cake
3 yards of green: https://www.missouriquiltco.com/shop...-olive-yardage
2 yards of border fabric: https://www.missouriquiltco.com/shop...tallic-yardage
and of course the DD: Ansonia Pink & Chocolate Charm Pack

I really like how M* showed the four solids that could coordinate with it. Thanks M*! I can sure see how this would increase sales.

Anyone else buy any of the specials today?

I very badly wanted to order todays DD. especially at that price!!! But I just put in a big order and am now grounded from getting more for at least a month or 2

That is such a pretty line and I agree to keep the fabric in large segments. This would be pretty.
