I know you talked about not going too small on your block size, but could I use a layer cake for this project or is 10” too small as the starting size? Would you cut it three or four times at that size? I love this quilt idea and have the perfect layer cake for this, but I don’t want to be disappointed like you mentioned at the beginning of the video. Any advice would be appreciated.
Yes you can - 10" is as small as I would go though. You can do 3 or 4 cuts and your blocks will probably only measure about 8 1/2" when you are done as the edges for some reason when you use smaller pieces end up a bit more wonky, but you can square them up :) - let me know how it goes! Nancy
@@QuiltingWithNancy I have been working with my 10” blocks and being careful with adding my 1” strips and the block hardly shrink at all. I’m using a scant 1/4 “seam and pressing well. My blocks are finishing at just a hair under 10”. Donna Jorden at Jorden fabrics has a similar method and she marks her pieces with a small line to keep everything straight when sewing the pieces together. The combination of your cutting method and her piecing method works like a charm, you should give it a look. I have decided to cut the blocks four times, so end up with 5 pieces to sew back together. It’s coming along very nicely. Thought you might like to know.

@@QuiltingWithNancy thank you so much for the quick response. I will give it an try and see how it works out. Looking forward to part 2 of your video.
Thank you for asking this question. As this block was being made, I kept seeing it in one of my layer cakes.

Excuse me, what are painted fabrics?
It is one of the things I do :)
