    I suggest fleece backing. People get cold easily during chemo.

    I made a quilt for a friend undergoing chemo and backed it with a fleece blanket. Tied. Made it long enough to fold under at the foot and wrap around the sides. They do get very cold during treatments.

    I LOVE Boxed Squares! It can be done in different sizes and it's very impressive when a lot of colors are used.

    How about one piece of minky and the other side flannel: just put them right sides together and sew leaving an opening, turn right side out! Finish off by hand sewing the opening closed and top stitch all around!

    I have done the 12 block Turning Twenty many times & it does work out very nice. I have also done the donation quilt from Mary's Quilts. 1 of the fastest quilts I have done. I did use an 1/8 yd of 5 coordinating fabrics for the sm accent strips to add a little pop. The Rail Fence is also on my quick to do list.

    Checkerboard quilts are fast and easy - and also a personal favorite of mine. Simple and elegant.
