I would love to win your drawing room fat quarter bundle. I donât use a lot of layer cakes but now that Iâve ordered the .pdf download book i can make more.
I like fat quarters, but have a used a few layer cakes as well
something new to try out !!
Just learning….need all the help !!
Whatâs not to love about a Pat Sloan Layer Cake?!!!! Of course I would use this in a heartbeat. Thanks for all you do for us!
Love your new fabric line. I got the Perfect 10 book recently and now I need a layer cake .đ
I’m very much into Layer Cakes right now. Great for the Perfect 10 I just received!
I love all pre-cuts,but my favorites are layer cakes!!!
Layer cakes
I like fat quarter bundles because it’s alreading coordinating fabric, then I just add background.
Fat quarter bundles are my favorite.
My favorite precuts are fat quarters and layer cakes. They seem to be more versatile than the smaller precuts although it would depend on the pattern.
My favorite size precut is a fat quarter. Although I also like layer cakes. Your Drawing Room fabric collection is beautiful.
Love a fat quarter bundle. Alot of times I just fall in love with a fabric and really don’t have a project in mind. Fat quarters give you enough fabric to do a pretty good size quilt, or add some blenders and make a bigger size.
I tend to collect charm packs and layer cakes. Sometimes, I’m afraid to use them. Carry, for sure!
I would love to have the layer cake. I love layer cakes. I have used some of your fabrics. I do like this line and the colors. Thank you for what you do.
I love fat quarters and layer cakes. Your Drawing Room fabric line is beautiful!
I love working with Layer Cakes and Jelly Rolls the best.
I have two favorite size precuts! First is a layer cake and second is a fat quarter bundle!! Thank you Benertex & Pat!!!
My wife loves all fabric, lol! She does love layer cakes, but honestly, she just wants to be able to build up a fabric stash with anything we can afford. She trying to build her skills since she fell in love with quilting when our granddaughter was born a year ago.Now, if I could only be able to get her a nice machine with more throat space I think I’d be the best husband ever, lol.
Hi! I have only been quilting for 2 years, and I’ve tried everything but fat quarter bundles. They’re a little expensive for me. I have a house of 8 that I love and care for, so whenever I’m able to buy fabric it’s like getting a birthday present, lol. So far, layer cakes are my favorite. I’m saving up to be able to buy my first FQB hopefully this year.
Fat quarter bundles are my favorite. All the fabrics coordinate and there is plenty of fabric to make a pretty quilt.
Everything you have done with drawing room is beautiful! I love fat quarters – they’re so versatile, but when the budget allows half-yard bundles are WONDERFUL!
I never met a charm pack I didn’t like. A layer cake makes 4 charm packs so I would love one of yours Pat.
I plan on making a quilt this year using a layer cake. I have never used one before but this is the year so winning this layer cake will inspire me even more. Thank you.
Fat quarters and layer cakes are my most favorite precuts. Thank you for all your videos.
Thank You
I like fabric by the yard. Cut my own leftovers into strips(like jelly rolls) and use on backs.
Fat quarters are my favorite because I can cut any of the other precuts from a fat quarter.
I love all fabric! I need to get busy and use my layer cakes.
Thatâs like asking which grandchild is your favorite! I love them all!â„ïž
The fabric is beautiful and I love layer cakes
I like fat quarter bundles, jelly rolls and layer cakes.
I usually buy yardage and cut my own. I would like to try a layer cake. It would save time.
I usually buy fat quarters but love to sew layer cake squares together to make a quick quilt. Love the size of those to use as a quick throw. Drawing Room is a beautiful fabric line. â€ïž
I haven’t met a precut I didn’t like!
fat quarter bundles are the best
I never met a pre-cut that I didn’t like. Lately, I have noticed that a lot of quilts are calling for half yard cuts, so I’m kind of leaning towards that. Otherwise, I will buy whatever is on sale! Thank you Benartex for this wonderful giveaway and congratulations Pat.
My favorite precut is a fat quarter bundle
I am currently enjoying using layer cakes. But there is a place for jelly rolls and charm packs.
I love fat quarter bundles, although I started out quilting with charm squares.
Fat quarters are my favorite because there’s more! Thanks for the gifts Pat!
I love seeing all the different fabrics in all these packs so I don’t really have a favorite.
I love working with Fat Quarters and layer cakes. Well I love all fabric cuts.
I love any and all fabric but mostly use fat quarters
I like layer cakes, charms, and jelly rolls because they give a large variety of the collection fabrics.
I’m really a pretty new quilter. But so far I have been preferring fat quarter bundles.
Any free fabrics are the best!
Any free fabric is wonderful!
Lately Iâm into using fat quarters although if itâs for a baby Iâll probably use a charm pack.
