I would suggest a 10 Minute Block quilt. The patches go together really fast, easy to cut and look nice. It's also easy to machine stitch on a HSM if you don't have a LA. Stitch in the ditch and X's across the patches look nice. (I added buttons,because it suited the fabric.) Here's the link to the tutorial on YouTube and a photo of the one I made. It is lap sized and sold quickly. Hope this helps you!
