Layer Cake Quilt

This is a quilt that I made for myself out of fabric that my mom gave me for Christmas... last year.  When I received the layer cake of Lila Tueller's Santorini for Moda I immediately knew I wanted to make a quilt with it and started searching Moda Bake Shop for ideas.  I chose this pattern and worked on it over the course of a couple weeks whenever I had time.
I chose a solid brown snuggly fabric for the back and quilted simple lines all over.
I love the polka dot binding!
I love the look of the floral prints that resemble stained glass.  Usually the quilts I make are for someone else, but for once I'm going to keep one.

  4. Very pretty! I'm looking for ideas to use up a layer cake. I love them but they have so many color themes that I start dividing them up and then putting them with other fabrics and then I start getting all confused and hence I'm now eating chocolate chips and searching! The rail fence piece in yours sort of ties all the colors together. That might be my solution!

  5. Dear Tara: Do you have a copy of the pdf file for this pattern so you can send the pattern to me? If you do not have a copy of the pdf file, please let me know the name of the pattern and where you found it. I love your quilt! Roxy Sherburne in Hudson, WI at rksherburne@gmail.com
