I love fat quarter bundles, but find I tend to use layer cakes for more projects so that I can get all the yummy fabric in the line!
I like fat quarters best. There are so many more opportunities for patterns!
I would love this layer cake the color are fabulous
I like the Layer Cakes with all the different fabrics to create a beautiful quilt. If I like any particular fabric a lot then I can ordered more of that type for the borders.
I do like fat quarters, would love to have some of your fabrics!
Thank you,
Wendy
I love a fat quarter bundle most of all. Just looking at all the beautiful coordinating fabrics brings me so much joy.
Congratulations on your 10th anniversary. You inspire so many. Love to enter to win your layer cake of the drawing room fabric.
Iâve never used a layer cake so itâs time I tried. I love the drawing room fabric and it would be fabulous to win. Thanks for all your videos, I have learned so much.
I like to make scrappy quilts. So I like fat quarters & layer cakes; both seem so versatile. Thank you Pat & Benartex for this wonderful Give Away. Love your videos and all the tips you give I look forward to receiving each videos….
This is so much fun. Love your sew-al-longs and fabrics.
I prefer fat quarters, but use jelly rolls alot. I’m interested in using a layer cake soon!
I love layer cakes best. I think the best precut depends on the project. Iâve never used a fat quarter bundle but Iâm going to buy one of mercantile for the sew along.
Beautiful fabric. Great patterns and tips each day help me improve my skills. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
I would love to have a layer cake of your line. My favorite is fat quarters though.
My love for precuts started out buying jelly rolls, but the more I started using them and my embroidery skills started and grew, I tend to buy layer cakes. I can pull pieces of a layer cake out to use in my embroidery and not have a lot of waste. Also if I need a charm pack size, I can easily cut up a layer cake. They seem to be very user friendly in my quilting too. If I really love a line, I try to buy two layer cakes because that gives me more options for the size of quilts. I would love the layer cake of your latest line which I seem to gush over. LOL. Good luck to all who wants to win.
I like to use fat quarters. For me, they are the most versatile.
My favorite pre-cut is 10â Layer Cakes. I can use them for so many different patterns.
I love fat quarters as there are usually leftovers to add to my stash. It is not big enough yet! I like coordinated scrappy quilts.
I find the layer cakes to be very vetsatile .
I love all fabric. I would love to have some of your fabric line.
What a tough question! I’ll have to go with a Fat Quarter Bundle for flexibility.
Never have had fat quarters.
I really like fat quarter bundles because everything coordinates. Just have to add a background
I have never had a layer cake before. Hoping to win this one! The colors are rich!
Hope all is well with you.
I move to Miss. 7 years ago discovered U Tube and have been watching you ever since.
Do not get up early enough to see you live. But I don’t think I have missed a show in the past 6 years. Love the show, keep up the good work.
great looking layer cake. helps me keep me color coordinated
Rescue I love layer cakes first and then fat quarter bundles. With layer cakes you can use it whole make 5 inch squares or 2 1/2 inch squares. Very versatile.
I love layer cakes.
Congrats – I love fat quarters – pretty fabic
I tend to buy fat quarter bundles.
I like layer cakes the best right now. But I used to like 2-1\2″ strips because they are so handy. Drawing Room looks good.
I love a layer cake when I can afford one đ. Lots of fabric and lots of cutting options.
My mom really likes the Drawing Room fabric line. I’m she (we’ll) find something to sew with it.
I love Fat Quarters! Fat eighths and layer cakes are a close second and third.
My favorite pre-cut is fat quarters then the jelly rolls. I’m useing some layer cakes right now.
my favorite would be fat quarters⊠I guess second would be their cakes! Thanks again for the giveaways.
I love the layer cake because it is a great way to get a whole fabric collection and enough fabric to create a quilt top without having tons of left over scraps. Love your show, Pat! Keep on sewin’…
As a beginning quilter, I tend to gravitate toward 5″ and 10″ squares the most. I’ve never purchased a jelly roll, mostly due to not knowing what to make with it. I have purchased a few fat quarters as well.
I really use fat quarters the most but enjoy using any size that makes it easier on me. . Would love to try the layer cakes , love your fabrics.
My favorite precuts are fat quarters and half yard cut. They are easier to handle in my small cutting space.
The drawing room fabric is beautiful, I like the layer, cakes and fat quarters the best
What wonderful giveaways. Love your fabrics and my day starts watching your videos. You are so inspiring to me and keep me accountable in my projects.
I have purchased all of types of precuts but I think I have used jelly rolls the most. Happy 10 year anniversary!
My favorite size of pre cut is 5″. They add a lot of variety and opportunity.
I like fat quarters best!
I love all precuts, but layer cakes and jelly rolls seem to be my go to. Love your videos. Thank you.
It would be wonderful to get a layer cake of your fabric.
Beautiful layer cake
I like fat quarter bundles. They give you a wide range of fabric combinations.
I like the flexibility of fat quarters.
