I have cake mix 1&2, little cheaper at MSQ. I don't purchase layer cakes, but you can make them from yardage if you want. I have not did the cake mix yet, but watched the tutorial on youtube and like it.

I saw them on one of Jenny Doan's videos not long ago. They look like they would be fun. Something a little different to do.

I love the Cake Mixes. I bought all the different sets when I first saw how they worked. I copy them on vellum and have never used sewn on the original papers. I can sew a few blocks when I don't have much time. I keep a stack of blocks all sewn with the same solid color and I have enough for a quilt in no time.

sounds like a great system.

Well, isn't that clever. I have a few layer cakes (from Moda) lying around, waiting to be used. I thought I was going to cut them down to charm packs and that just hasn't happened. I will have to check these out! Thank you for sharing.

Love this idea. I haven't found them locally yet but I am hoping they will be available soon. My bee is doing a swap this year where one person provides each member a 10 inch square of focus fabric and we make them a block (they determine the size) then the next month we return all the blocks to them so they can make a friendship quilt.

Ever wonder why they call quilting fabric by tempting food names? Candies, cakes, bake shop, and now cake recipes. Given the size of most quilters, why do they do this to us? :hunf:

I don't like to use 'cheater' methods. I really enjoy the whole process of cutting, piecing, layering, quilting and binding.
