Checkerboard quilt. Two alternating fabrics to make one quilt. It's both easy and quick.

This pattern shows two strips of alternating fabric. You can make checkerboard quilts as big or as small as you want. It's a classic pattern, never gets old. When I make it, I usually use 6 inch strips of fabric. Why? Because 6 inch strips are easy to cut with my 6" x 24" inch ruler.
Add borders if you'd like.

I don't have any one pattern I use. I make 30-35 quilts per year and do all different patterns.
The fastest I have done is to buy a remnant of a child print, cut the sides off to make a nice size and sew appropriate colored borders on sides, top and bottom, sandwich it up, quilt and it's done.
These quilts go to kids in the foster program in my county.

The strip quilts are very quick!! Love those. Also this simple 6 1/2" squares, alternating with focus fabric. A 1 1/2" inner border then a 3 1/2 or 4" outer border. Super fast to put together. I usually cut enough for 2 quilts at a time.
