Re: Layer Cake quilts pic heavy
They are all absolutely gorgeous!
This is something that I've been thinking that I would like to do, as well. In fact, I've been adding layer cakes to my wish list. It makes me wish I didn't already have several quilts planned that I need to make first!
I noticed that you used one layer cake for each quilt, and then added the borders. What are the measurements of the finished quilts?Last edited by SherylM; December 28, 2015, 11:21 PM.Sheryl

Here is what I think: Anita used layer cakes with 42 squares. She put them together 6 across and 7 down to use all 42. Then figuring a 2" finished inner border (cut 2 1/2") and outer borders finishing at 4 inches (cut 4 1/2"), the approximate size would be 69x78 1/2 inches.
These are lovely quilts, Anita!! Your idea is a great way to make stunning quilts. Jenny has a tutorial on this but she scalloped the edges on hers.
I would love to know the name of the layer cake that has the black border.Last edited by Bubby; December 29, 2015, 05:45 AM.

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! And the border fabrics you selected - gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! They each were the perfect compliment to each of the layer cakes.If you are not willing to learn, no one can help you. If you are determined to learn, no one can stop you.- Zig Ziglar
