Do you have a favorite "go to" pattern you use over and over?

I use a different pattern for every quilt I make, but today I'm starting my second Bento Box because I enjoyed making and arranging the blocks so much that I ended up with enough for another quilt.

I like Floating Stars and Log Cabin. I also like Card Trick, Bear Tracks, Oh heck, I love 'em all! Pinwheel, I guess that is why I love to do samplers! Some new block in every quilt I make just to keep in the loop! Edie

Mine too! I made about 10 or 12 of them several years ago for baptism quilts at church and baby quilts for friends. Then I burned out on Luck Stars for a while. Generally, when I find a pattern I like, I will make at least two of theat pattern to kind of "cement" it in my brain.

I have never done the same thing twice. I always try to learn something new with each quilt I make so make something different. I also get easily bored doing the same thing over and over. I really like sampler quilts for that reason but also do other type quilts.

I try not to make the same quilt pattern twice but I seem to be drawn to Quiltville's Pineapple Blossom which I've made 2 so far. Since watching how others make up this pattern I just decided to try my hand at yet another one using the creams for the background with browns, golds and maybe a little purple for accent. Someone just finished one in creams and reds and it looks outstanding.

I'm not sure if it my go-to but I do love the 9 patch/snow ball, in flannel for 2 of my older relatives (80's)! Brown and aqua for my uncle, white and aqua for my aunt
