Site icon Making Scrap Quilts from Stash

Precuts

Our HeartStrings challenge this month is Layer Cakes and that is a challenge for me because I don’t really like layer cakes and unlike Jelly Rolls and Fat Quarters which I have overflowing drawers full of … I have 2 Layer cakes.

I spent more time looking at ideas on line and in my books than I did sewing today and in the end I decided on something easy … a Lattice Quilt.

I made one years ago from scraps and have directions on my website at this link.

A couple years ago, I found a link to a video to make a larger version using Layer Cakes … I used smaller squares cut from my scrap bins to make this version.

This time, I grabbed one of the 2 layer cakes I have and started cutting and sewing.

I needed something pretty easy because we head back to VA in 3 weeks and I’ve got a lot to accomplish while I’m home. The other goal is to get 3 tops quilted and of course I’ll have to prep projects to work on in VA in July.
