Inspired by Jenny Doan of Missouri Star Quilt Company’s Double Slice Layer Cake Quilt Pattern, Mary Ann Altendorf created this free PDF printable and downloadable tutorial that everyone can use.
Aside from layer cake pre-cuts, this quilt project is also great for your fat-quarter fabrics. For a scrappy look, it is recommended to use 20 different contrasting colored fabrics. If you want to make this quilt longer you can customize it by increasing the size of the sashing in between rows.
Finished Quilt Measures: 48 inches x 61 inches

I make snuggle rugs (patchwork front, polar fleece back) for people who get little given to them. I’ve used this pattern without the strips across and with really great fabrics they look wonderful.
I don’t know what measurements are in the pattern but mostly I cut squares at 6 and a half inches and the smaller rectangles at 6 and a half inches by 3 and a half inches.
This gives me a block that is 9 and a half by 9 and a half, finished size is 9 by 9. I’ve also made it as a 12 by 12 finished block which requires different measurements.
it’s a great pattern.
Looks wonderful and easy.
