  • Winner will be chosen at random next Wednesday, February 19th at Noon PST

    Layer Cakes are big enough to make nice, comfortable 1/2 square triangle blocks like Jennie (Missouri Quilt Store) makes – 2 10″ squares rst, 1/4″ seam all the way around – then cut on both diagonals! Easy-Peasy.

    I haven’t used Moda’s Snow, but use the Kona all the time. I’m guessing they are about the same color and would love to try it out in a scrappy I’m working on. Layer Cakes I use as is or cut them down as needed, sometimes into four 5-inch charms, depending on the project. Thanks for the giveaway!

    I have never used a layer cake. There is a pattern on Missouri STar Quilter called Love Letters that uses layer cakes that I would like to try.

    They are great for a pattern for a thread catcher I have, for triangles and this Layer Cake would be great for embroidery work for quilt blocks. crystalbluern at onlineok dot com

    I’ve never used a layer cake, but I think that they would be great for quilts because each square could be cut into such a variety of sizes. You could get coordinated strips, charms, and mini-charms without having to purchase separate charm packs and jelly rolls, or a ton of yardage, plus you could leave the occasional piece full size for more variety. Thanks for the chance to win.

    I love half square triangle quilts. I use layer cakes frequently! The large squares make putting together a large quilt simple and fast. A little sashing and voila!

    I haven’t had the chance to use a layer cake yet…but I would pair this SNOW with the PB&J fat quarter bundle I have that’s just waiting to be cut into! Thanks for the chance to win.

    I’ve never used a layer cake before, but it seems like they would speed up putting certain blocks together.

    And I love “snow” – – such a nice alternative to stark white.

    Kona Snow is such a great color, so many uses. Love the layer cakes, they can be used whole or cut into various shapes and sizes., and save lots of time. I have a pattern for lots of flying geese blocks, and these would be perfect for the size I need.

    I have never owned or used a layer cake, but I can imagine that I would use it in a all solids quilt. That is also one thing I have never made before, but that’s a must do!

    I mostly seem to stash them, but lately I’ve been thinking that giant pinwheels would be really fun with them. Thanks for the chance!

    Precuts are my all time favorites. I have made several quilts with layer cakes. Most recent a chevron quilt. Would love to win this. Woop

    Funny your giveaway is for white cake layers… I currently have a bundle of cake layers in a spring print (forget the name) and with so many colors in the prints… white would be the perfect contrasting color to use! Thanks for the drawing

    To be honest, I love breaking layer cakes up and using them in my scrappy quilts to help modernize them! It would be tempting to keep this one altogether though!

    I have made several lap quilts from layer cakes. I usually choose a pattern with some pieces that are about 6″ to show off the prints and some smaller pieces to use up the rest of the layer cake squares. Instead of just using the layer cake prints I also mix in a bunch of stuff from my stash to make it my own and to be able to make the quilt the size I want.

    Love the Kona solids, only have used their yardage. I would cut the layer cake to make pinwheels, or cut into strips, or something new, have to wait for the inspiration lol

    Quite honestly I have never used a layer cake before but I think it would speed up the process to make a quilt top. Thanks for the chance!!

    I love to make quilts with them, and my quilts always have white! This would be such a blessing and time saver. I am about to begin a layer cake sampler. Thanks for another great giveaway!

    Recently discovered Kona Snow and absolutely love it! I too have “stolen” a few pieces so I know that feeling well! Making a quilt top right now using layer cakes…slices go very far and are oh so satisfying! Thanks for the chance to win this!

    I love to make quilts with layer cakes, and Moda snow is a perfect complement to the many layer cakes I have lying in wait to become quilts.

    SNOW is my favorite colour of Kona solids. I am new to Layer Cakes, but I’m a fan of large pieces in quilts, so I think I’d love it to use in a quick quilt!
