Patterns like YBR are great for when you need to put a quilt together fast - especially if you like scrappy looks or have a lot of scraps to use up.

I found another simple pattern that looks like it's more than it is - it's called "Wickedly Easy," and it really is! :) And it's free on the www.byannie.com site.

I have made three quilts from this pattern - all three of them in the same group of Texas-themed fabrics - two of them are king sized and one of them full sized. All of them have pieced borders on them.

Like the YBR, if you get enough contrast among your fabrics and a couple of bits of eye-popper colors, the quilt seems to sparkle. I'm done making this for a while, but after I work on something more challenging, I'd do another one.
