7 Great Items on Amazon - All about Layer Cakes

I love the easy way I can use precuts to enhance a quilt project. I like to buy them even if I don’t have a project in mind. But what inevitably happens is I have a few precut packs in my quilt studio that just aren’t fitting into my projects. What to do?

With both things in mind, I’ve been shopping around on Amazon and found some great layer cakes AND ideas on what to do with them. And now I want to share what I found with you.

Great easy instructions in color. The contents are divided into layer cakes, jelly rolls, and fat quarters. Sue Pfau, also, talks about how to use and choose your fabric and managing the lights and darks! I like this book so much that I bought one for myself and a friend. – Nana Lana
