Have you cut all your fabrics into blocks already? If not, I make a simple baby or lapquilt using 2 fabrics cutting 3 strips of each fabric - 6 inches wide by WOF. By alternating colors, sew strips together, press seams all one way, then fold in half lengthway, cut strips 6 inches wide. You should get 7 strips. Lay then out turning every other one opposite way to make a checkerboard effect. Sew strips together. add a 2 inch border all around or make a wider border if you want. You can also make this using your blocks if they are already cut out. By adding larger borders you can increase the size. also increase the width of your strips to make your blocks larger too. Just a suggestion.
