I'm with you. I make a quilt once, I get bored to do it again. I also love applique quilts, which is even harder to get impetus to do a second one.

I make many comfort quilts each year. My go to is "Shirley's Quilt" that I designed in memory of a member of our guild who passed away. Free pattern is at my friend's blog http://b-quilts.com/blog/?p=4738. I cut my scraps into 3 1/2 x 6 1/2 and keep them organized (and flat) in a drawer. I can whip one out in no time and each quilt looks different because I use different scraps and different sashing.

I like the Friendship Star,Sawtooth Star, Disappearing 9 patch, Rail Fence, Shoo Fly. When I need to use up strips, I make Log Cabin blocks; I'm making 2 of them now.
