What you need to make this quilt

Layer Cake 
1 full set of layer cake or 42 pieces of 10" squares. I use batik layer cake fabrics, but you can use any theme/colors that you desire.
2 1/3 yard of background fabric
I use Kona fabric in off-white color.
5/8 yard border fabric
I opt for narrow border for this quilt (2 1/2" wide), feel free to make wider border (adjust the measurements and the amount of fabric needed accordingly). 
72" x 83" batting
Choose any batting that you like. I personally prefer 100% cotton batting, which is light and easy to work with.
4 1/2 yard backing fabric
5/8 yard binding fabric

Machine quilting thread (if opt machine quilting) 

Basic sewing /quilting notions


What can I use instead of layer cake?

You may cut individual pieces of each fabric panel according to the listed measurements. Fat quarters, yardage, even fabric scraps will work (the amount of fabric that you need may vary depending on how many variation of each fabric that you use).

What fabric line did you use for this project?
I mixed different lines of batik fabric for this project, most of the pieces are from the layer cake, and some I cut individually from yardage. I would say that most of them are Indonesian Batik. 

Please watch the full video tutorial on my Youtube channel, and happy sewing.

Modern layer cake square in a square quilt along

Modern Layer Cake Square in a Square
This modern style square in a square layer cake quilt is not only adorable, it is also pretty simple to make. For this quilt you will need the full pack of Layer Cake (the precut 10" squares) that are widely available online or at retail quilting stores.

The finished measurements of this quilt is 51.5" x 60", for this quilt I use one of my favorite fabric line which is the French General's Fleur de Noel by Moda Fabrics. I simply love the rich red color, balanced with some more muted shades of gray. It is the great color for the festive season. Nevertheless, feel free to use whatever fabric that you desire, in any theme, and color palette ;).

To make the block you will need to prepare 2 pieces of layer cake in contrasting color.
Picture
Lay them straight on the cutting mat, and stack them on top of each other
Picture
Picture
Now take your ruler and rotary cutter, measure 3 1/2"  and cut 
Picture
Picture
Without moving your fabric, measure 1 1/2" from the previous cutting line, and cut
Picture
So you will end up with 3 1/2", 1 1/2", and 5" wide strips
Picture
Take the 5" wide strips, and rotate the position width wise.
Picture
Now do the same as before, so measure 3 1/2" and cut, then measure 1 1/2" and cut from the previous cutting line.
Picture
Picture
So you will end up with 5 panels of fabric from each layer cake
Picture
Below is the cutting diagram if you want to see the whole picture
Picture
Next separate fabric A from fabric B (remember they were stacked together), and then put them all back again, however you want to swap the the panel 1 fabric (the 5" square), just like shown in the picture below. You may change the position of the panels, as long as the inner square is kept inside.
​
Picture
Then go ahead and sew them together, the square the blocks to measure 9" square
Picture
Continue the same sequence for the rest of your layer cake pieces, thus will yield 42 blocks. Then lay them out as shown below, so you should end up with 7 rows and each row should have 6 blocks.
Picture
Now go ahead sew all the blocks together and do the rest of the typical quilting routine.
