On my design wall today is the
Layer Cake Quilt Along project. I am up to date (until Tuesday) with sewing the 9 blocks that have been posted. They are laid out in the order they were made, and this won't be the final layout - the colours will need to be spread out better, especially that wonderful green! This project needs more orange!
You can see the dotty sashing fabric I had purchased, which isn't going to work - not enough contrast. I'll need something else in there but won't decide until May when the blocks have all been made.
This is block #8 - very fast and easy.
And block #9 was fun with many varied layout options. I put in the tiny connecting corners of the purple stripe to use up the rest of it.
The green and the multicolour fabrics in this block were not from my original layer cake, but were scraps given to me by my sister from
a project that she made last year. Although it doesn't look like it on the computer screen, the greens are a perfect match.

I like your colors-very happy.
I've been pulling my completed blocks out when we get a new pattern to be sure I don't use the same fabrics---I have a tendency to pull what I like out over and over. I always find that to be amazing.
I love your blocks and the colors!Congrats on getting them done.
Your LCQA blocks are looking great!
Your blocks look great...I am partial to green and purple together.
I'm seeing a bright gold sashing! Yummy! Great job on keeping up! :)
A little more orange would be great. I love your addition to #9.
Great blocks; I just love the lime and orange!
Very cute, looks like spring.
I love seeing all the blocks together. Once I finish block 9 I also want to post the set. I LOVE your colors. It is going to be such a bright and fun quilt.
What a fun, bright quilt this will make. Good for you being up-to-date with it.
I love the bright colors in your blocks. I like the green you added.
Love your blocks. The colors remind of summer sherberts. Very cute!
Doesn't it feel good to be caught up? And yet, tomorrow we wil be behind again. I really like your blocks: they will make a really bright Spring quilt.
Love the fabrics and colors in your blocks! It says spring. Now where is spring? Your arcs in the previous post are amazing, too.
This is so pretty and springlike.
Love your pretty blocks! Great fabric choice - and you are up to date at least until today...
