MAGICALLY TRANSFORM ONE LAYER CAKE INTO TWO QUILTS

The design for these quilts came about because I was keen to teach my daughters to quilt. The quilts have simple cutting, quick piecing and no seams to match. And with the addition of some low-cost background fabric, they make optimum use of a single layer cake of fabric.

A layer cake is a coordinating collection of approximately forty 10" x 10" squares from a single fabric range. It is an economical way to purchase a small amount of each fabric in a range.

Single bed size quilt: 66.5” x 81.5” (169cm x 207cm) 
Small quilt: 44" x 57" (112cm x 145cm)

The pattern includes: 

• List of fabric requirements

• Detailed cutting, layout and assembly instructions and diagrams

• Helpful tips throughout

• Binding instructions

• A full alphabet for appliqued nameplate
