Maybe my math is wrong, I'll need to try it out to check -- buy why can't you cut two of each unit from a 10" layer cake? First cut would be 2-1/2" x 10" strip, then subcut into four 2-1/2" squares; next cut another 2-1/2" strip and then subcut into two 4-1/2" x 2-1/2" rectangles; and lastly, from the remaining 5" x 10" fabric, cut two 4-1/2" squares. You'd yield twice as much from the layer cake with only slivers left over as waste. Cute pattern!

To make a quilt the size shown (56 1/2" square) they end up using half of 36 layer cake squares, so you could also do it with a Jolly Bar which is the size of half a layer cake, or make more blocks and make a much bigger quilt.

You absolutely could..
Looking at the pattern it would be better to use 2 charm packs. You'd have a lot less waste. Use one pack for the 4½" squares and the second pack for the strip and two squares. Or cut your layer cake in half and save for another project.

Thank you Kim! This is right up my alley! My skills aren’t all that great, I feel this is doable! You do so much to educate those of us who are not so experienced, I so appreciate you!!
Love this pattern, I was able to get two sets out of one layer cake piece!
Love this layer cake pattern. Thank you!
Love this simple quick quilt
What a great pattern. Thank you. Another quilt to add to my “to do” list. 😀
It's beautiful. Thank you
Thank you for creating a FREE beginner-friendly pattern where I will actually have some scraps from my pre-cut to play with later! I really like this quilt design, it looks more complicated than it is to make (I hope!). Gorgeous fabric choice here too. I think I'll make the background border smaller, and add a large outer border of one of the prints in the Layer Cake. (Although I have been buying fabric and tools for quilting since 2012 with dreams of making all kinds of quilts, I have only ever finished and bound 2 quilts ... and finished a few more quilt tops only; I still have the quilting to do on those. But I've so far made nothing too tricky. Baby steps!). Thanks for your Layer Cake Lollies tutorial, Kimberly, I appreciate all the freebies you create to encourage us 'nervous' quilters. ~Diana K.
That looks awesome! Thank you!
I’ve been quilting for 20 years and just love this quilt. It looks so involved but you break it down so that it’s so easy. I love it, thank you so much. It’s definitely on my list to make this year.
Thanks for sharing this. Lovely pattern. 🌸
I love these shortcut quilts.....fabulous! Thank you.
Thanks, Kimberly! I’m a beginner quilter, and I would have thought on glancing at the quilt it would have been too difficult, but your tutorial convinced me otherwise! Thank you!! 😍
What a darling pattern!! Thank you Kimberly!
Thanks for the pattern. Always looking for designs to use a layer cake. Thanks again Kimberly.

I love that fabric! So pretty. Thanks Kimberly for the great instructions. I’ve never made a quilt and I love the look of this one. 💕🧵
Just finished piecing the twin size. So much fun for my first quilt! Thank you for the free pattern!❤️
Thanks
I love Flowers for Freya!. My cat is Freya. I might have to make her a quilt!
I absolutely can’t wait to start this TODAY!!! I have several layer cakes to work with. Thank you for the super awesome tutorial.
Planning to make this with the two charm packs that came in my Sew Sampler this month
Very pretty quilt.
Wow, that does seem easy to do. Also, you explain nicely.
Very cute!
Love it!!! Thank You!!!
Adorable quilt!!!
Great pattern, thank you
Love the pattern!
Great pattern, I will try this soon
Thanks for sharing. It looks like it would be difficult until you showed how to do it. Absolutely believe I can do this! Thanks again.
Love your videos. You sure know make it fun to watch and do. Thank you. Glad I subscribed. Keep up the great work!
Great idea!
Great tutorial. Thank you
I love it, thank you
I love this pattern, I don't have two layer cakes but I will order them and definitely make this.
I love this quilt idea. I have a bunch of leftover Minnie Mouse quilt fabric leftover that are cut in layer cakes so this would be perfect and very easy. I love the dandelion background fabric used. It looks great. Many thanks for the pattern and video. You are the best!!
I love this pattern! I am so looking forward to my hand recovering from surgery so I can quilt again because I want to make this with Blooming Bunch! Thanks Kimberly & FQS!
You can get the quilt pieces from a Jolly Bar. Just cut the C and D squares first from 2.5 x 5" (one end of the jolly bar) . Then trim remaining 5 x7.5 to 4.5 x7.5 and cut 4.5" square (A) and then 2.5 x4.5 rectangle (B).

This looks fun.
This is such a beautiful quilt. It certainly doesn't look like a beginner. I will definitely make this. Thanks. God bless.
Thank you!
Loved it
Cute!
Two charm packs, no waste. 1 charm - the 4.5 inch sq. The 2.5 strip and squares from the other, you'd have no waste.

As Kimberly states at the very start, she is gearing this for a beginner, so the layer cake makes sense, rather than your suggestion for someone more experienced.

@@bethk7648 So, you are saying that a beginner can cut fabric from a 10 inch piece, but is incapable of cutting fabric from a 5 inch piece? WOW! Sorry beginners, Beth K thinks that you are incapable of math and geometry. But Beth, maybe you are right, let us extrapolate out your theory. So, you are saying that a beginner MUST use 10 inch piece.. SO 1. How then are they cutting two 2.5 squares then from the strip Kimberly said to cut out of the 10 inch piece? Hmmm? 2. Given that there is a lot of waste ... as she indicates in the video "you can save this for another project"...TWICE... how then are they going to cut up THAT less than 10 inch waste for another project since they can't figure out how to cut a smaller than a 10 inch piece? 3. AND, what if said beginner simply can not afford a layer cake, and needs to save money... how are they going to make this lovely quilt? LASTLY, there is at least one other comment(s) on here about another party that stated she was going to make this using the two charm packs received in her last sew sampler box, and another person said, hey, you could use a Jolly bar for this pattern.. both comments left days prior to your rude comment here insulting beginners... yet you did not comment to those people how they are harming the poor beginners. How bout this, let the beginners fend for themselves in the math and geometry dept, I think they know what their skillset is in those arenas. Is your middle name Karen? Thanks Beth Karen, I am sure some beginner out there values your defense of them. GOOD GRIEF.

Thank you for a great video,
I think I will try placing red fabric on the three squares that look like an angular heart. Great for my granddaughter in pinks, creams etc with that one diagonal in each section as a heart. Thank you for these patterns.
I am making the queen size in this pattern. I was able to get 2 of each piece on my 10” squares. So I only needed 2.5 layer cakes to cut out the quilt. Great pattern

My thoughts exactly. Tomorrow I will begin cutting, so I made a sample block and discovered that if the 10" square is carefully cut to begin with, there is no need for trimming to straighten and far less waste.

Looking for a little to no waste layer cake pattern. This is perfect, and there are nice size pieces leftover for another project! I will be using with Edyta Sitar's Practical Magic layer cake ... yummy!
I made this for my Pastor in her favorite colors.
Sew fun!
I would tried it thank you
Thank you
Thanks so much for a great video. I will be using this pattern for a comfort quilt. Our Guild here in Lancaster PA make over 300 per year and give to 5 different organizations.
I laid out layer cake cutting directions differently & cut double out of each one!!

@@nevadastitcher I in no way said that she does not accomplish good things, I said I hate watching the crooked pinky. It's one of those things like where people say the word Moist bothers them... I have no issues with moist as a word, but looking at that hand (injury) makes me cringe at the pain that must have been. Sorry, but for me personally it's cringy and distracting. I can't help but feel empathy for the pain, and I would think anyone who likes Kimberly would empathize with that pain.
Very pretty!! Thanks!
BEautiful Pattern. I am adding this to my list to do.
Thanks Livinnpjs for your suggestion about the charm packs which means I can make 2 quilt tops if I buy 4 charm packs and still probably spend less than 1 layer cake. Makes good "math" sense to me. 🤔 You're awesome. Thanks for letting us know.
❤❤❤
This is a really cute quilt and looks like the perfect size for a baby quilt. I have two charm packs that I bought in anticipation of a baby girl but my friend had a third little boy! I think I will use this pattern. I do think I'd rather use two charm packs to cut down on left over scraps. I have learned it is handy to have baby quilts ready to go.
If you were not using a layer cake you could also do this as a disappearing 9 patch. Follow pattern to make the sweet, then the next (candy) blocks, and these would form the 4 corner squares of a 9 patch. You need 4 more pieces of background to alternate around the edge of the 9 patch, and a contrast square for the centre. Assemble 9 patch and cut into 4. Reassemble to resemble this pattern. If you don’t want the background areas and centre squares to be so wide, make your 9 patch with narrower rectangles of background, and a correspondingly smaller centre square.
💚💛💚!!!
I wish upon a star you showed us the press paterns on the back
I had a great idea for the “alphabitties”. Wouldn’t it be great to have a Velcro like adhesive of some kind on the back of the letters so they stick to the fabric? My pieces sometimes fall off, or get unorganized. This would also be great for those that utilize their design boards on their walls to layout their blocks!

A felt backing will do the same without damaging your fabric or pulling at your batting. If you want to try it out I can think of 2 ways. 1. felt stickers used for chair backs, 2. Felt sticker sheets from hobby lobby , cut peel stick.
