I thought I posted this request last night but today I can't find it. Maybe someone can tell me how to find it. Anyway, what I need is suggestions for an easy quick pattern to make for grandaughter's new bedroom....twin size. Thanks...have a quality day!

Warm Wishes, Rail Fence are a couple that I can think of, I'm sure that there will be plenty of other suggestions.

Yellow Brick Road, Rail Fence, Disappearing 9 patch are a few that come to mind. Or you could just sew various squares of fabric together, that goes together very quickly especially if you have charm packs or layer cakes on hand. Or Missouri Star Quilts has a tutorial showing how to whip up a pretty quilt using Layer Cakes. It's called Double Layer Cake or something like that. Enjoy!

I made 3 rail fence lap quilts in two months. Surprised me.

I love the simple nine patch or trip around the world and if you do this one the Eleanor Burns way there are no interlocking seams! yeah!
peace

My favorite go to quilt that is quick and looks great is Warm Wishes. I like to pick a great focal fabric for the main blocks and surround it with strip colours picked from the focal fabric. You can set any tone you want by picking the focal fabric... Tinkerbell, Dora the Explorer, Disney Princesses, Spiderman, Winnie the Pooh etc....

Yellow Brick Road is quick. To find your post, go to your profile and look to the left and click on "latest started thread".

How about a Turning Twenty (or again!) I also like Take 5 (pick 5 fabrics in 5 minutes, goes together really, really fast)

Warm Wishes is one of my favorites and it can be adapted for any age.

Rail Fence (or basket weave) is a simple and quick one, and personally I like 9 patch, and double 4 patch. Just some ideas.
