You know a quilt along is almost here because the blog button has appeared!
Layer Cake Quilt Along
2 Nov 2010 to 3 May 2011
Starting November 2nd, every other TUESDAY, instructions for a new 12" block will be posted. All of the blocks will be made from a layer cake (10" squares) and yardage. Links to all of the blocks will be on this post, but instructions are first posted on my blog (click on the header at the top of this page).
Each block will be designed by a different person. Every two weeks there will be a guest blogger on my blog introducing himself or herself and his/her block. At the end you will have made a fun quilt
64" x 80."
Here's the information you need to get started:
Fabric Requirements:
1 Layer Cake (or 12 fat quarters)
1 1/2 yards accent fabric
1 2/3 yards outer border
4 yards backing
2/3 yards binding
Size of Quilt: 64" x 80"
FAQ:
There have already been some questions, so here's some answers. . . .
1) Will linear quarter yards work?
They should work just fine. I have told the designers that they have 10" squares of fabric to use in their designs. Some of them will have pieces that are 10" long at most. I was at first thinking this was a problem because you only have 9" of width with a linear yard, but you have 10" in the other direction.
2) What's up with the accent fabric?
The designers are not given liberty to use the accent fabric like they were with the last quilt along. They were told they could use a small portion in small amounts if needed and it couldn't be along the outer edge of the block.
The accent fabric will be used to frame each block as well as a stop border for the entire quilt. The fabrics I am using are on the blog button. I am using white as my accent fabric. Everyone should NOT choose white. Choose the fabric like you would choose a stop border. (The stop border is that first narrow border that stops your eye as you are looking at the quilt.)
3) When is the first drawing?
The first drawing will be on Tuesday, Nov 2. To be entered in this drawing comment on this post. If you know what fabric you are using, add that in. If you don't know yet, that's okay. Drawings will always be held Tuesday night after the posting of the block. Winners will be posted the following day on my blog.
4) How do I get entered into the block drawings?
You get entered into block drawings by posting your block on a flickr site. Here is the link to the flickr group:

I'm sure I have forgotten something. If you have questions, let me know. FYI, if you post anonymously, then I can't email you a response.

1 – 200 of 214 Newer› Newest»This is my first quilt-a-long, so I'm really excited!
I'm using Moda Eden, with Bella Snow as my accent.
Not sure of my outer border, but I've bought two Eden prints to choose from. Once I've got a few blocks made I'll have a better idea which one I'll choose.
Off to learn how to add the button!
I'm in! I just posted the button on the sidebar of my blog! I don't know what fabrics I'm using yet, but I'm looking forward to it! :0)
Count me in - I am going to be using Clermont Farms by Polly Minick & Lauri Simpson for Moda. I too am off to figure out how to add a button. Thank you for doing this fun adventure.
I am grabbing the button!!! I am excited.
Happy to join in again and I will be out looking for just the right layer cake and accent fabric.
I have that same layer cake... guess I better pick somethng else :)
Count me in -- I'm so excited -- bought my fabric a couple of weeks ago. I'm using Martinique by 3 sisters. I had so much fun with the jelly roll quilt-along. I entered it in our county fair and received a ribbon -- awsome!
Oh goodie!!! Cannot wait to get started! I'll be using Fandango fat quarters. Have yet to select and accent fabric, but will do that soon.
Thanks Konda!
I'm excited. I'm going shop hopping next Wednesday to find the perfect fabric!
Count me in! I have no clue what I'm going to use yet. I guess I'll have to hit some quilt shops! :)
I have a serious Layer cake stash so I am certainly going to try and join in. A block every now and then shouldn't be too difficult I hope.
I am looking forward to this so much! I think I'm going to dig into my Lakehouse Tea Time stash for this quilt, so I won't actually be using a layer cake, just wonderful fabrics.
I've got the button added to my blog!
I am really really wanting to do this. I've already got the fabric, which is Pure by Sweetwater for Moda.
I'm praying that I do alright as I never really done anything like this before and I have to confess, I'm scared. I'm afraid I'm going to mess up so badly! LOL. :-)
I'll be posting the button on my blog; but, I'm not sure if I'll be successful. But, at the very least, others will find out about it. :-)
Oh, my. I have never bought a layer cake so I will have to do some fabric shopping. Do I only need one layer cake? plus some yardage. But I so enjoyed the JRQAL that I guess I must join in this one, too. Thanks
Sounds like fun! Will go buy the layer cake tomorrow!
I've got an autumn themed layer cake ready, off to get accent fabric next week. I'm looking forward to doing this
sign me up! i need to get a layer cake but i'm in. adding your button to my blog now :)
Oh I can't wait to quilt along with ya'all again! I'm so excited! I think I'm going to use some Art Gallery that I have laying around in my stash.
Already put the button on my blog, that's how ready for this I am ;)
I loved the Jelly Roll Quilt Along so much that as soon as I saw your earlier post about the Layer Cake Quilt Along I ordered a Fandango layer cake on sale and all the yardage I would need. I'm hoping whatever I picked for the accent piece will truly be an accent. I'm sure I was just thinking a border fabric when I selected it. Anyway, I'm really looking forward to it, and I'll post the button, too. Thanks!
Count me in too. Just finished the back of the JellyRoll QuiltAlong. That one is ready to sandwich and quilt. The button for the LayerCake is on my blog now. Don't know what FQ's to use, but I've got some to choose from.
I'm in!! But I'm not sure about the fabrics yet.
I'm using Punctuation - I guess I need to get some!
his sounds like a lot of fun! I'm in.
My Whimsey Layer Cake has been begging me to let join the fun & who am I to tell it no. The button has been added to my blog. I can't wait to get started. Thanks for hosting again!
I don't have a blog...but I'm in. I also loved the Jelly Roll quilt along. I've got my layer cake of "Bliss" ready to start!!
Leslie can't stop quilting
I will have to raid my stash for a layer cake and get ready for my first quilt-a-long!
Ok I am in...I hope...yes I am in! Just because it sounds so fun!
I'm in. Just need to figure out what fabric I'll be using.
i'm in, the only layer cake i have right now is Make Life by sweetwater. so i'll probably use that unless i buy another one!
Not sure yet what I'm using but had a great time on the Jelly Roll Quilt Along!
I am excited to join. I missed the jelly roll qal! Now off to the Fat Quarter Shop to pick my layer cake.
I was so excited when I saw your new quilt along. I'm using Kansas Winter and toying with the possibility of using black as my accent fabric.
Count me in! I'll do this one too!
I cant wait until this starts! I did the Jelly Roll Quilt Along and loved it! Because I have such a huge stash! I am going to use my red/white/blue collection of fabrics. Hopefully it will turn out kinda guy looking for my son!
Am borrowing a great idea from another poster...I'm using my red/white/blues from stash for the layer cake sew-along. That way I can make a top for an american hero quilt and have fun with you all at the same time.
Can't wait to get started.
I'm excited for another quilt-along! Even my husband liked my quilt from the Jelly-Roll one, and he can be hard to please :)
Not sure what fabric to use yet... I have some leftover squares from an old Moda Layer Cake, I'm not even sure what line. Or, I have a bunch of fat quarters begging me to make them into something cute. We'll have to see!
I'm in, and I'm very excited, as this is my very first quilt-along! It's also the first quilt I'm making without an already-decided recipient--could I be getting into dangerous territory? *grins*
I'm going to be using a Dream On by Urban Chicks layer cake, and I will find accent fabric and order the border fabric once I have the layer cake in my hot little hands.
Finished the top and back of the jelly roll quilt along and am excited to start this one with 12 fat quarters I got many moons ago.
Oh! Fun! Fun! I'm in.. I had so much fun with the Jelly Roll Quilt Along :) I will be posting the button today as soon as I decide which Layer Cake I'm going to use!!
Count me in, too! This looks like fun and a cool way to use those layer cakes I can't resist, but always manage to just pile up! I'll be using Kansas Troubles "Kansas Winter" line.
Can't wait to get started!
Blessings,
Mary Lou
I loved the jelly roll quilt along and can't wait for this one. It kept me sewing and quilting. Still have to finish mine but will soon.
I'll be using Breath of Avignon. Love that fabric and was just looking for the perfect pattern to use. I think this will be it.
Thanks so much.
I want to join! But I have no idea what to choose. There are too many great fabrics out there!
I can't wait. I've chose Origins by Basic Grey for my fabric. My accent fabric is one of the fabrics from the line, the grunge lemon yellow one. I hope that will work okay. I'm really looking forward to this one. I love this fabric line and can't wait to see how it will work up.
Can't wait!! I have that layer cake in your button, but I'm not sure which one I will use...
Thanks for hosting this again!

I'm so exciting to participate in this - my very first quilt along! I chose a Rural Jardin layer cake by French General. My accent fabric hasn't been purchased yet, but I'm thinking a nice creamy tonal and my border fabric is dark red. The button is now on my blog and I can't wait to get started!
I'm going to play. I'm going to use Botany by Moda. It's something out of my comfort zone.
Really looking forward to this! Sure it will be as fun as the Jelly Roll QA. I have 3 different layer cakes to choose from, havent made my choice yet. Will add the button on my blog
Merete
This should be fun -- deciding what fabric to use.
Dorothy F in IL
I am SO looking forward to another of your Quilt Alongs. This time I am going to use "Awesome" by Sandy Gervais. I have the layer cake and I have the accent fabric. I'm READY.
The Button is on my sidebar.
Thank you Konda. I look forward to the fun.
I am so excited to join in this one! I did the JRQAL, finished the quilt and gave it as a wedding gift on Saturday! I LOVED how it came out too!! I put the button on my side bar. I am going to have the women in my quilt group play along this time too. Thanks, Konda!!!!!!
I'm going to use an It's a Hoot layer cake by Adorn It.
Oh, boy. I did the Jelly roll quilt along, still need to finish it. Of course I will do this one.
This is my first quilt along, so I'm so excited! I am using Moda "Pure" layer cake and fabric...
I HOPE I CAN JOIN IN. HOPEFULLY MY CAST WILL BE OFF BY THEN.
I have a Plume layer cake just waiting to get started. Janette
Ive recently acquired some layer cakes and need to stretch my block muscles. Cant wait to participate. Mmmm... may be fandango, no Lilly and Will, mmmm...
I have a layer cake that I don't know what to do with, so count me in. I'm down to 5 quilts on my UFO list, I need to start some new projects!!!
I'm so excited! This will be my first quilt-a-long!
Hello!
I've decided to join your quilt along! it's my first one ever... I'll go and fetch some fabric now!
Got the fabric! Aster Manor by 3 Sisters... can't wait to have it in my postbox!
I have never participated in a quilt-a-long before, so I am really excited about this one. I am using Moda Tweet-Tweet. Not sure about my accent or border yet.
I think I'll use my Miss Jump's Scrapbag layer cake.
I missed the jelly roll QAL, but don't want to miss this one! I have a bunch of Sassaman "Sunshine and Shadows" that hopefully will work well with layer cake blocks. Looking forward to the start!
I have a Bliss layer cake and all the fabric I need to do the QAL. I even bought Bliss flannel for the backing. I still need to finish putting the borders on my Jelly Roll quilt but I loved making it.
Count me in - I love my quilt from the jelly-roll quilt along!
Yippee! I am so pumped. The JRS quilt along was great and now I'm ready for another. Perfect timing Konda. Thanks!
I'll be using a fat-quarter set of Moda's Blush by Basic Grey. (No blog, so nowhere to add a button.)
I got behind on the Jelly Roll Sampler (sorry)... but if you will allow it I would love to join the Layer Cake group!I'm thinking Fig Tree fabrics...
I've never participated in a quilt along and don't have a personal blog, but it sounds really fun, can I still participate??
thanks!
You don't need a blog to participate. There's no quilt police here. If you want to start this quilt along when you have other projects not finished, by all means, join the club!!!
I am going to use Fruitcake as my fabric. Just ordered the yardage to go with the layer cake I have had in my stash. Button is on the blog so will be ready to start in November.
I loved the Jelly Roll Quilt along and will be buying my material tomorrow for the Layer Cake Quilt Along. I am posting the button on my sidebar. Thank you so much for offering the quilt alongs.
I have a blog I just started and I would like to post the quilt along. How do I do that? with the logo?
I have 12 Blush Fat Quarters that I have been wondering what to do with. I guess, now I have my answer. I'm not sure what my accent will be. I can't wait to see the blocks.
Count me in. I'm looking forward to it. Will be using fat quarters from the Moda line, Hunky Dory.
I just found out about this and i am so excited. Count me in!! I haven't chosen my fabric yet, but am going soon.
This is my first quilt-along. I can't wait to get started. I have an Origins Layer Cake from Basic Gray and a shot cotton for the accent. No border fabric yet.
Suz
Looking forward to making another Moose quilt.... not sure about the fabric yet.
I have joined in and finished the link on my blog. Thanks for that tutorial. It is always fun to learn how to do a new thing on my blog!
Don't know what layer cake I will choose yet. Stay tuned! Thinking.....
I'm in again...loved doing the jelly roll and I am sure this will be just as much fun. Will do 2 again, one scrappy and one I haven't picked the fabrics yet for. As usual, the scrappy will be a donation quilt. Thanks for doing this again.
I would certainly like to join again. Last one was very fun. I am just finishing the quilting and then I will blogg about it and also about the new project. Thank you very much for the pattern I received from you. It is very nice :O)
I'm in! This is my first quilt along and it sounds so fun!
I am using Moda's Punctuation by American Jane.
Just added the button to my sidebar - thanks for this fun idea!
I'm a little nervous as this is my first quilt a long and i've only been quilting for a couple of months, but i'm super excited about it! i'm trying to decided on a layer cake...SO many choices!!!
I'm so excited! I'm planning on using Moda's Haunted Mansion layer cake. I love Halloween, so this ought to be fun!
Thanks for sharing!
This sounds like fun! I have a ZaZa Zing layer cake that I couldn't decide what to do with, so I'm ready to go.
This is my first quilt along and I cannot wait! Another excuse to fabric shop!
I'm in. I'll be using the Origins line by Basic Grey for Moda. It should be good!
I thought I already commented but cannot remember for sure if I did. I couldn't see my comment but that was with a real quicky review of your list.
I absolutely loved participating in your Jelly Roll Quilt Along. My sister and I talked about our progress the whole time and couldn't wait till the next square posting would come out.
I look forward to doing this one as well. I have some layer cakes and yardage ordered and on its way here.
Thanks a bunch!
What a great idea. This should be fun. I plan to use French General's Rural Jardin.
I don't know if I posted before but today I finally found a layer cake I liked (I don't usually buy precuts) so I am ready. I loved your jelly roll BO2M and am excited to try this one, too.
I'm in but not sure of my fabrics-I'm thinking either something by the French General or maybe FQ of civil war repro from my stash...I have some time to decide--and Nov. 2 will be here in a blink! sigh.
I cannot resist this fun! I have a shop hop coming up at the end of the month and I will see if I can find a layer cake at these shops. If not, I will use FQ's.
I'm going to sift through my fat quarter stash and my yardage stash and see if I can come up with a fun and funky combination of fabrics for this! I've never done a quilt along before, but I am in the mood to clean out and use up what I have so this will be a great project to help me do that! I've grabbed the button and will post it shortly.
Thanks to all the designers involved in this project!
MGM
Hmmmm I have a Hunky Dory layer cake that I bought for another quilt along and decided not to use. I might just have to join in
=0)
Oh, boy! Fun times with Layer Cakes!! Sounds like fun to me! Mind if I lurk???
I'm totally nervous about taking on this type of project as a beginner, but I think this looks like fun! I'm in (and even managed to figure out how to post the button I think!)
I'm looking forward to my second quilt-along with you, Konda!! I'm sure you've outdone yourself again! :)
Count me in. I missed the jelly roll quilt along, but not this one. :-) Don't have layer cakes, but I do have a lot of FQ's. Not sure yet what I'll use. We'll see.
Yes,I`ll join,thanks!
may be Breakfast at Tif og Rural Jardin or.......
I can hardly wait to start! I don't know what fabric I want yet, but am going shopping this weekend so maybe something will call me!
Can't wait to start! I have a couple layer cakes for fabric lines I have and just didn't know what to do with them! Thanks! Nancy
Yes. I plan to participate. I think I've decided on my layer cake. Thanks so much for hosting this quilt along!
I am excited to join you!
I just ordered Punctuation! So excited about this one. :)
I have a Tula Pink Plume layer cake just sitting here waiting for a project to use it for. I think I have found it! Can't wait to see how this goes.
I think that I may jump in on this one. I've got a couple of lovely layers cakes to choose from. It will either be Wee Woodlands or Cherish Nature.
I'm excited to quilt-a-long! I plan to use a Merry & Bright layer cake from last year (because I love this fabric and have tons of it stashed away along with the layer cake!). Thanks for the tutorial on how to add the button - I did it once before and promptly forgot how.
How much experience do you need to complete this project. I've only done three quilts, so I'm not sure I am experienced enough for the project.
I'm going to use some Leanika for Free Spirit fat quarters that I have sitting around waiting for just this opportunity!
i haven't decided yet what to use. but i would love to play along. again.
I'm excited to get started - my first quilt along!!
I grabbed the button but forgot to leave a comment. I'm in, I love your quilt alongs.
I had so much fin with the last one, I am definitely in on this one. I will be using the Pure line by Sweetwater, Moda.
This is my first quilt-a-long also like some of the others.
I am expecting my first baby around Christmas.
I havnt decided on any fabric yet but I will next time I get town.
Alright, I'm in! I guess I'm going to use my MakeLife layer cake by Sweetwater. No idea on accent fabric though!
This will be my first quilt-along, but I am such a sloooooooow quilter, I figure the two week timing will be perfect for me! I bought the Portobello Market (by 3 Sisters) layer cake. I had never even heard of a layer cake before this...I may be out of my league! ;-)
I am ready with my layer cake in hand. Really enjoyed the jelly roll quilt along.
I can't wait!! I was going to use my precious last layer cake of blessings by Brannock and Pateck for a couple of small quilts but it will be so much better for this quilt along!!! I haven't even started my jelly roll quilt- it's all kitted up and ready to go though so I think i'll do them side by side!! Thanks for the wonderful quilt alongs!
I've never done a quilt along, but you have to start somewhere, right? So why not here? I'm jumping in! Now off to find fabric...
You put a lot of work into organizing this. If it is half as successful as the Jelly Roll quilt along it will be a wild success. Looking forward to the start up which will be here soon. Joanne H
I might use some Moda Bliss or Red Rooster paisley Party, but I haven't dicede the accent fabric.You've said we should NOT use white :(
Oh Boy, can't wait - I loved the jelly roll quilt a long so this one should be fun too. I just won 12 FQ's in the Fall Giveaway so I think I'll use them - they are Art Gallery fabrics.
Count me quilting along with you.
I will be shopping this weekend for my fabric.
I will be joining along. I will be stashbusting for this quilt along.
I'm in! I do not have a blog and have no idea how to post pictures, but I will be participating. I will be using "Prayer Flag" by April Cornell. The Jelly Roll quilt along was so much fun! Thank you for your hard work and sharing with us!
Ramona N.
I have a layer cake that I've been trying to figure out what to do with it.
I'll wait till I see the first block or two come out before I cut fabric and join in with you guys.
I'll stalk the flickr site to see what every one is doing.
~Ann
I think I'll have time for this one, I added the button to my side bar with a post announching the quilt along as well on my raggedies-n-prims blog
Helen
My first online quilt along. Sounds like fun! Thank you for hosting it.
I'll be using Woodland Bloom by Moda.
Just got my layer cake - Luna Notte 3 Sisters Moda - can't wait to get started.
Hi, I am joining your layer cake quilt along and will be using a batik layer cake - I hope it will work with the block patterns! Thanks for organizing this, I followed along on your jelly roll quilt along, but you were almost at the last block so I did not join in. I do hope to make that quilt too!
My girlfriend, Anita and I are both using Boutique. But we will choose our own fabrics for each block. When we're done, we'll divide up the blocks, so she gets some of mine, and me hers. We are using the same accent, but different borders.
Thanks, Konda, for another fun Quilt Along!
Judy, aka Keelybird
Okay, Okay I can't stand it anymore - count me in!
Looking forward to the first block.I think I'm going to go into my stash and work on that for a while. The count down for the first block has started!
I am so looking forward to this quilt along. I had a lot of fun with the Jelly Roll Sampler. I have a couple of layer cakes, but need to decide on which one soon.
Can't wait for the new quilt along--trying to get my girlfriend to join
I am undecided on the fabric - I'm thinking light, bright with blue, pink, green. I may go with fat quarters for variety. Anyway this will be my first quilt along. I am looking forward to the experience. The button is on my sidebar.
I havent decided on a fabric yet, but I would love to join. I am still enjoying the jelly roll quilt along. I am hoping to keep up on this one. I have no vacations planned during this one so count me in!!
I'm a little behind on the previous quilt along, but as a quilter I'm always willing to do another. Looking forward to the first day.
Please enter my name. This is my quilt-a-long. I don;t know what fabric I'm going to be using yet.
www.quiltsampler.blogspot.com
Since I loved the jelly roll challenge and the resulting quilt, I HAVE to play along with this one too!! Looking forward to it.
Charlene
I can't wait I am so excited... I love the last one....Lynn
My first quilt a long. Just hope I can keep up! I'm using Moda's Arnold's Attic by Barbara Brackman.
I found the last quilt along just as it was finishing up, so I am not quite done yet, but enjoying it so far. This next one will be incentive to keep going on the jelly roll project. I am going to try and use fat quarters from my stash for this one, so either asian prints or alice in wonderland. Either way, I can't wait. These quilt alongs are a great way to learn new techniques, and I love to see all the different endings.
EEEEEK!!! I'm in!! I am so excited! I'll be doing the Lollipop layer cake by Sandy Gervais, with vanilla yardage as my accent.
Ok, I shouldn't, but I'm in! :) I will "have to" buy fabric this week. Sounds fun!
I don't know what fabric I'm using yet. How fun!
Okay, now if I can just figure out how to add the button!
This is my first quilt-along too! I don't know what fabric to use yet, but it will be some shade of apple greens and blue! I am going to grab your button when I get home!
I am getting excited!!!
Oh! Sounds like fun. After big time pressure from my sister, I will join along. Peer pressure, you know! Not sure what I will do yet but I will think of something.
This is my first quilt along. I've managed to add your button to my blog. I guess now I just wait for the instructions to be posted while I choose my fabric.
I too enjoyed the JR QAL and look forward to this one. There is so much more for me to learn and perfect as I go! I'll be using basicgrey fruitcake layercake by Moda. I've purchased coordinating accent, border, binding and pillowcase fabrics. Let the fun begin!
ciao,
I am in!
i put the botton on my blog.
i think i will use Honky Dory by Moda, dont know yet about the yardage.
francesca
So fun! I'm using It's a Hoot, which has been sitting on the shelf, just waiting for an opportunity to show off.
This will be lots of fun - I really had fun on the last quiltalong. I'm torn with buying a new layer cake, using the Scout fabric I already have for my Eagle Scout, or using 40 pcs of stash.
Susan
susie.galasso@gmail.com
You bet I'm up for another quilt along!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!!
I am so excited. I am using "Love is in the Air."
Count me in.
The first quilt along was so fun. Looking forward to seeing all the new quilt block patterns.
Donna Nelson
My sister said I "HAVE" to do this so I am in...LOL. Of course she didn't have to push too hard. I bought a layer cake by Moda today but can't decide if I love it or not. I'm thinking of going with Origins by Basic Grey for my younger daughter who loves green. I would accent with the grunge black from the line. I guess I will have to decide soon or just make two quilts. Right now I am working with Salt Harvest by Moda.

This is my first quilt-a-long too. I'm really excited. I'm going to use Rural Jardin by French General.
I have a Charisma layer cake that has been laying around for a few years. This might be the time to use it. Kathie L in Allentown
I've added your button to my blog, I am a follower, and I want to sign up for the "Layer Cake Quilt Along 2010." Now I just need to get my fabric...
Count me in. I'm not sure what my fabric line will be yet, but I have an idea.
My first Quilt Along!
My layer cake is SPRING MAGIC
And I hope to finish it before spring ...
Don't know the other fabrics yet.
Exciting!
Count me in ! I'm going to a quilt show ( and all the VENDORS! ) this weekend, and I will pick out my fabric then ! Thanks to you and all the designers !
Beth
I have Happy by Me and My Sisters. The colours aren't as bright as I expected from the online pic, but they are still pretty. Waiting on my accent fabric and border fabric but I have the layer cake in hand.
I wasn't trying to be anonymous in my post about the Happy fabric...trying agian.
I am making mine a scrappy quilt. I plan on using up some of these odd and ends I have laying around! I am looking forward to the first block!!
Tracy Dawson
dawson.tracy35@yahoo.com
I have my Happy layer cake ready to go and can't wait to get started!! Look forward to seeing all the different blocks as they are made! Thanks again Konda for taking the time to organize this for us! Count down till tomorrow...
I love the jelly roll quilt along. It was my first time using a jelly roll and I discovered how nice it is to have minimal cutting. I wonder if I'll fall in love with layer cakes too. I probably will start late on this quilt along, so I haven't chosen my fabrics yet.
This is my first quilt along and I'm ready to start. I have the Origins layer cake.
Thanks for hosting this!!
This will be my first quilt a long. I think I will use my Garden Party layer cake.
Should be fun. Edith
Using Authentic layer cake. Looking forward to solving this mystery!!

This will be my first quilt along and I am sooo excited. I will be using Moda "Alliance" layer cake for my quilt. I haven't picked an accent yet. I've posted the button on my blog.
Dang, I thought I had already signed up! Well, here I am. :)
this will be my first quilt-a-long...thanks to a group of ladies that I quilt with I am counting on their help! I am using AWESOME by Moda.
Grabbed the button and am ready to sew! Yea!
I am really excited to join in.
Im in! I am so excited that I looked at this today, with it being the starting date!
Okay, I'm going to do this! Have a bunch of Christmas projects to do but I'm going to try this out too. I'm going to use a Hello Betty Retro layer cake.
Count me in.....I'm looking forward to doing the layer cake quilt along. Sounds like fun. Our Wednesday night quilt group is doing the quilt along as a group. I have until tomorrow to pick my layer cake as I do not want to fall behind the rest of the ladies....
I was going to restrain myself, but I can't. This quiltalong looks like so much fun, I just have to do it!!!
I think I have told you a hundred times that we are in, but I never actually read this whole post enough to know that we were SUPPOSED to post first before we got to post our pictures...oopsie. anyways we are both in here. can't wait. using pure sweetwater by moda and I think the other one is fruitcake by moda
This is my first quilt along too! I'm so excited! Of course, I'm late and unprepared, but that's typical! I'll post my fabric this weekend!
Just found your site and love the idea of a quilt along. I made the first block from scraps but want to find a layer cake to use before I post a picture.
Ok, I am in! This looks like too much fun to miss out on. I will be using AWSOME by Sandy Gervais (love her fabric). I posted the link on my blog. http://thehometownquilter.blogspot.com/
This is my first quilt along, I hope I can keep up :o)
This looks like fun. I like the first block
Bookmarked and I plan to sew along. Stash fabric layer cake with a UFO finish dangling in front of me like carrot cake: "you can shop for fabric IF you finish something..."!
2 October UFOs down :)
Hi: I think this looks like a lot of fun. I have done mystery quilts and was very pleased with the results. Looks like much the same thing. I put your button on my blog and used your instructions, BTW they were great instructions, I was having a bit of trouble with that. THANK YOU!!!
And thanks for the block pattern I can't wait to try it

This is my first Quilt Along. I am really excited! I ordered my fabric today- Breakfast at Tiffany's.
I'm a beginning quilter so I hope I will be able to stay up on the blocks.

I finally decided I'm in! Can you tell me if we'll be using the entire layer cake? I have a complete layer cake which isn't my style but could be fun anyway or one that is definitely my style but missing a couple of slices.
I hope it isn't too late to join! If not, sign me up, I have a layer cake ready to go!
Been away and need to get sewing-first to the shed to find a layer cake and co-ordinating fabby!
looking forwards to it-the JRS was such fun!

Just finished my 1st block, using Mary Englebreit's Carolers. I have not yet picked an accent fabric, will have to wait and see- but it won't be white :)
Love all the blocks on the Flicker site
No blog tho, so no button :(
Thanks Gene and Konda- I'm going to enjoy this

I REALLY have to wait another week for the next block? I thought for sure it was coming out tomorrow! Can you tell I'm impatient? LOL
Just got my layer cake. I'm using Clermont Farms by Minck & Simpson.
I'm late joining. This is my first quilt along. I don't have a blog yet or a flicker account, but I hope to start both over the next few days. I will be using fat quarters from Robert Hoffman Wildflowers. I know what I'm going to use for the border but I'm not sure about the accent fabric yet.
I am also joining late. I haven't even decided yet on my fabrics. I have a group of fat quarters, called Quilter's Palette, Fashion II Collection. I am leaning toward using them - there are 20 FQ's so many options. I do not have a blog.
