    This is my favorite pattern when I don't want to cut the focus fabric in little pieces. You'd just need two coordinating fabrics.

    My favorite quickie quilt is a Log Cabin using 2 1/2 inch strips.

    Yes it is and it's really easy to adjust the size as well by cutting your strips shorter/longer or narrower/wider.

    How about a ninepatch alternating with a snowball block of your focus fabric.
