Here are 2 very easy ones. Basically the same plan and both are machine quilted. My husband's was done before I realized I could do detailed hand quilting like I did on the butterfly quilt but you could machine quilt the entire quilt on the machine. This is the basic pattern my quilt chapter uses to make our charity quilts. Our charity quilts are made using 12 inch blocks - 3 across and 5 down. These 2 quilts are 15 inch blocks but 3 across and 5 down. My husband is tall and I needed his to be longer. Kim is short but I wanted to make sure she could wrap up in it. If you do the 12 inch blocks, you could run a couple up very quickly.

For the striped blocks, I've used scrap strips and they worked out well even though they weren't the same width. You can do those however you wish and use more or fewer of them. This charity quilt was made using fabric given to me by a friend. It's fabrics that don't work into my quilting and she wanted me to use it so badly that I decided to use it for my charity quilts. There is enough left to do another one and she'll be thrilled when I print up a photo of each to give to her as she'll know they went to benefit someone and she is no longer quilting.
Good luck
