Watch the video tutorial below to learn the step by step instructions.
Materials:
- one pack of layer cake
- iron, for pressing
- sewing machine
- rotary cutter
- ruler
Directions:
Step 1
To start, take several layers of fabric in the same size (or the layer cake pieces) and cut it all throughout the entire stack. Repeat this until you’ve cut all 42 pieces of layer cake pieces. Now, sew the pieces together. Get one of each of the pieces, put them right sides together, then sew. (Make sure the pattern of the fabric is not the same.)

Step 2
Repeat this, sewing random pieces together, to create a completely new 10″ block. (It’s important that there won’t be any repeats of the fabric pattern to make them unique from each other.) Once you have all your pieces sewn together, set the seams first, then press towards the larger portion of the block. Now, lay them out how you like to create the quilt top.
