- 🍁 Let's Make A Layer Cake Quilt! 🍁
We will use just one layer cake to make this stunning quilt top. Come along to have some quilting fun as we explore this free pattern and free quilting tutorial.
You can use whatever fabric layer cake you'd like (even scraps!) to make this beauty. Although this looks like a disappearing nine-patch, it isn't. It is much easier, too!
This is the fabric line I used in this tutorial: Forest Frolic by Robin Pickens for Moda Fabrics
Color Tool with Ruby Beholder: Ultimate 3-in-1 Color Tool
Here are the supplies you will need:
(1) Layer Cake or (36) 10" Squares (18 Light/18 Dark)
Rotary Cutter
Ruler: 9" or larger
Helpful: 6.5" Ruler
General Sewing Supplies:
Sewing Machine, Iron,
Matching Thread, etc.
Let's get starting sewing some patchwork!

I love your tutorials !!!!! Thank you so much
You are so welcome! I am thrilled that you like them! 🥰
Finished my entire quilt top today. I have NEVER matched seams as well as I have with this quilt. I have never had someone explain in such easy terms, the process of squaring up the blocks. Thank you!
Oh my goodness! YAY! I am so happy this tutorial was helpful! That's what it is all about! I just did the Happy Dance in my living room! Yay! Yay! Yay!
Thank you so much for sharing and your kindness AND for making this quilt! You made my day! ❤️
I'm just getting back to quilting after 20ish years. This tutorial was so clear - I think after I finish my husband's 9 patch, I'll do this pattern. Love the quilting you showed on your sample table runner too. I don't have a long arm. I'm from the days of hand quilting, so everything will either be machine or hand quilted. Hoping to start now and make a quilt for all my family members (6 brothers, 2 adult children, and a niece), so I better get busy. Now if only quilting fabric hadn't gone up in price LOL
Welcome back to quilting! I love this! I don't have a longarm either, so I usually quilt on my domestic machine or send my quilts to a longarmer. I would love to learn to hand quilt. I have done a little bit of it, but not much. Glad you are back to quilting!
I do like this, but I can also throw together a disappearing nine patch pretty quickly. It’s always fun to see a new way to do things, so thank you!
So glad you like it! I love the disappearing nine patch too! I do love that this is the same look with a lot less sewing. 🥰
I love a clear concise CZcams. Well done 🧵
Thank you so much! Glad you like it! ❤️
love the idea of making something look complicated when it only takes a few minutes of fancy cutting the fabric! Thanks for a great quilt idea
You are so welcome! Glad it is helpful!
I'm a Project Linus Coordinator in California and I am always looking for free patterns my volunteers can use. This is perfect! Easy but looks complex! Beautiful job!
Oh my goodness! This makes me so happy!!! Thank you for all you do! ❤️
You have worked really hard to make this video to share with us, so thank you so much 👍 Love how your quilts turned out 👏👏🇬🇧
Thank you so much! It is a labor of love. ❤️ More tutorials to come!
I love this! Anytime I can chain piece, I am a happy camper!
Absolutely!! Chain piecing for the win! 😎 So glad you love this!
Wow it’s a gorgeous quilt. I love fall.
Thank you! 😊 Me, too! It is my favorite season!
A beautiful quilt. Sometimes a finished quilt that is quick to accomplish is what I need to make. Thank you!
My pleasure! I agree! Sometimes you just want to sew. Thank you so much for watching!!🥰
I love quilts that don't take weeks to make. I will definitely be trying this.
Yay! So happy you are going to make it! ❤️
New subscriber here, I’m so glad i stumbled across this video. I now know what to do with all those layer cakes sitting on a shelf in my sewing room.
Yay! Welcome! I am so happy you are here, too!! Thank you so much! I am honored and thrilled that this video is inspiring you. 🥰
@@SewtheDistance and I just noticed I am signed in under my husbands name😅 I’ll go sign in under my name and subscribe again lol
No worries! I have done the same thing before. 😂
Love the tutorial. Easy, clear to understand. I like that it took only one layer cake.
Thanks so much! 😊 So happy it is helpful!
Love love love the fabric you used! Thank you for the free pattern and all the tips along the way!
Thanks, Fallon! So happy you love it! It’s a fun one! Thank you for watching! ❤️
I just finished a quilt top using the Double Slice Layer Cake. I think I will use this pattern for my next quilt. Thanks for sharing!
Wonderful! Yay! You are so welcome! Thank you for watching!
Being a newbie this looks so easy. I love the layer cake colors that you did in scraps. I think it’s great to also do the scrappy version. Because color and values are so much harder in the beginning. Thanks for the quilt demo. And I think it’s great to show us older quilts. 😊
So happy you like my videos! Welcome to quilting. Such a wonderful hobby! ❤️
Touché
YOU KNOW COLOR LIKE AN ART TEACHER !!! GIVE YOU THREE CHEERS !!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTELLIGENCE AND YOUR PASSION !!!
Oh, thank you so much! It took me many years to figure out colors in quilts. ❤️ Although with this project it is kind of easy since the bundle of fabric is already made for you. Still, I will take the compliment. 🥰
I love layer cake pre-cuts because of the beautiful prints that already co-ordinate and one gets to use the whole collection! This is a great pattern to show off a collection and I appreciate that there was no additional yardage to make up the blocks. This will enter my rotation right away; I have three layer cakes to choose from already in my stash! Thanks for your enthusiasm and excellent content!
My pleasure! I am so excited that you are already have this project planned! YAY! I love the way it highlights these beauties, too! I can't wait to make more. ❤️
I like the idea of almost zero waste. The quilt turn out gorgeous, thanks for sharing
YES! I love that, too! Thank you so much! ❤️
Beautiful fabrics❤️👍
Aren't they great? Love them, too!
I love this quilt top ! I just found you today. I have always been partial to the Autumnal colors. The directions you give are right on point. I am subscribing today and can't wait to see more videos ! 😉
Oh, thank you so much! 🥰 I love that you are enjoying my content and that you subscribed! Thank you!! 🥰
Beautiful!!!
Thank you!! So glad. you like this! ❤️
love that your layer cake pattern actually needs & uses most of a layer cake square. (I've ran into too many that could be made with a jelly roll or 5 inch squares instead. Pet peeve of mine.)
So glad you like this! I have the same pet peeve! I never know what to do with those left over blocks or strips. So frustrating. ❤️
Thank you for your lovely tutorial.
You’re welcome 😊 Glad it is helpful! ❤️
This is a lovely unique pattern that's easy peasy...
Thank you! So glad you like it. ❤️
Thanks for this great layer cake video. I appreciate the quick and through way you lay out the process and make sure to help us with how to make sure the blocks are squared up. Great for a layer cake that has many large flowers. I’ll be watching more of your videos.
Thank you so much! I am glad you like it! This would be perfect with big prints. I may have to try that. ❤️
You speak my language ❤ Thank you
Yay! My pleasure! ❤️ Thank you so much!
Love that Robin Pickens line. Your quilt is beautiful. Thanks for the video. I can’t wait to make one.
You are so welcome!
YAY! I am thrilled you are going to make one! ❤️ Thank you so much!
Excellent tutorial. My adult son wants a new quilt so I’m Going to use this pattern after the holidays. Also as others said a great quilt pattern for Project Linus
That's awesome! So happy you love this and are going to use this for your son's quilt! I love that it has inspired charity quilts, too! This all makes my heart happy. Thank you for watching and sharing!

You are so pleasant to listen to and thanks for sharing your ideas. Its a very pretty quilt top.
Awww! Thank you so much! You are so sweet! ❤️
I love this quilt. I can't wait to try it. I guess if I wanted a queen size I would make more blocks and add them on.
So glad you love this! Yes, you could easily make this bigger with more blocks. Great idea!
Bravo Great thank you for sharing and your zest!
Thank you too! 😎
You have some nice patterns.

Easy, really EASY to make! I made three quilts in less than two weeks using this pattern. Great tutorial; easy to understand and follow.
Oh my goodness! Did you really? That is amazing! I would love to see them! My email is sewthedistance@gmail.com if you'd like to share photos (do NOT feel you have to!). Thank you so much! I love this! It really made my day. When I make tutorials, I never know if others will make the projects or not and am thrilled when they do. Thank you, thank you, thank you! 🥰

I really loved this video! I have a layer cake I have been saving for just the right pattern. I have over-thought it and tried to pick just the right pattern, but all I really want to do is get it into a quilt and use it. I think this is the perfect pattern! Thank you for sharing. I love the enthusiasm in your videos. I think I am going to be starching my layer cake tonight and getting it ready to go. One more project ready thanks to you!I am trying to use what I have before I buy more, and I have so many beautiful fabrics on my "to buy list" that I need to work on easy but cute projects.
Wow! Thank you SO much! I am thrilled that this quilt inspired you to use the layer cake you have been saving! This is so much fun to make. I think you will really enjoy it! Let me know if you have any questions! ❤️
Easy pattern with awesome results😊
Yes! So glad you like it! It’s a fun one! ❤️
Yes I love the fabric and the pattern. The double slice is one I seem to always go to. And I love your spirit, SAS and genuine uniqueness.
I love Jenny Doan too, but you are a breath of fresh air. I look forward to finding more of your tutorials
