Default Favorite quilt pattern

I have more than one favorite quilt pattern, but I love to make baby quilts with a simple 6.5" square of the main focus fabric, with a 9-patch in coordinating fabrics. It goes together quickly, and makes a nice gift. I have also done several Warm Wishes quilts, which also go together quickly. I also like making the sawtooth or 8-pointed star, I cut strips 7" x wof, then subcut to 6.5 center blocks and the remainder in 3.5 inch strips. I also use this block when making table runners, as the 3.5" strips also make a good border. These are my "go-to" blocks when I need a quilt in a hurry.
