Create a Striking Quilt with This Versatile Pattern
Make It Up in One of Three Sizes!
Showcase beautiful fabrics in a variety of hues for a cheerful eye-catching quilt. The large pieces mean this will stitch up quite quickly. In fact, it’s so easy you may want to make more than one.
Ten-inch layer cake squares speed construction. Give your quilt a scrappy look, like this one, by using up leftovers in your stash. You can also coordinate colors around a theme. Or, choose a layer cake pack from a favorite designer and the color coordination will be done for you.

The following quilt, by Taunja at Carried Away Quilting, shows how lovely the quilt is in holiday colors.
She added a 1 1/2″ inner border and a 3″ outer border, so the finished quilt measures 41″ x 41″.
