Um, I don't! It's been a few years since I made something. No, wait. Last spring I was pregnant and our associate pastor and his wife had just adopted their first child and I had fabric to make a rag quilt so I made one. It was a "use what you've got" project and it turned out well. Since I was pregnant, and it was an emergency, I managed to find time. My daughter cut out the fabric for me, though. :-)
Since this time thing is such an issue, it really makes sense to just set it all up and sew for 15 min. here and there. I have my strips cut for this bar quilt thingy but have to cut them into shorter strips of varying lengths. Here is a link to the simple pattern:

My plan is to cut them down tonight and start piecing tomorrow and using the "I have five minutes, let's sew" strategy. There is not time in the kinds of blocks I imagine.
