Need Help Finding a Pattern

I need to find a free, fast, easy, but pretty lap sized (or bigger) quilt pattern using only 2 fabrics. I have been searching for hours with no luck. Suggestions anyone ????

One of my favorites is Spring Splash from McCalls http://www.mccallsquilting.com/patte....html?idx=8875. It is quick, easy and beautiful. I have made three and added wider borders to make it a little larger.

MSQC has a tutorial on the Magic Square block that I think would look good in 2 colours. Someone did a rectangle positive/negative quilt on QB but I can't remember the title of the post.
