Welcome from Ontario, Canada. A fairly easy pattern is Warm Wishes. It looks really nice and could be used for either quilt depending on the fabrics and colours chosen. If you go to the search box and type in Warm Wishes you should find some examples of it. Another pattern that looks very modern and classy depending on the fabrics is Shadowbox. If you are looking for something using pre-cut strips a French Braind quilt is nice too.
