“Iconic” Layer Cake Quilt
Happy hump day. Today’s new quilt features a simple-modern backdrop to put a spotlight on Layer Cake squares. Say hello to “Iconic.” (I may or may not be plotting a charm pack version version already.) Get ready to put your favorite prints front and center in this one.
Pattern Tidbits
It doesn’t get much easier than this quilt; “Iconic” is beginner friendly and a real quickie to put together. This is one of those quilts that looks great in any collection. In fact, the hardest part may just be choosing the accent color you use for the background.
My good friend (and pattern tester) Susan @ The Felted Pear is a total peach and pieced AND quilted AND bound this one for me.

August 17, 2023 at 7:51 pmWhat color did you use for the white background? I am waiting for my Lovestruck delivery in November and would like to do this quilt exactly as you’ve pictured it here. I think it is my favorite so far this year and I love your fabric and designs so I really want to make this one to keep for myself.
