Two of my favorites are Rail Fence & Trip around the World. These go by so fast and are so easy to do... Please share your favorite patterns, I'm fairly new at quilting (began Jan. 2010) and would love to know the favorite patterns of some of you pros!
|
My favorite quilt patterns are Bargellos. I also like super easy quilts.
|
Any kind of easy PP, Chinese Coins, Split Rail, 9 Patch...You can hardly go wrong on these! They may be favorite easiest but I love Grandmas Garden, a bit more difficult.
|
Is grandma's garden the pattern that looks sort of like honey combs? I love that pattern, but its a little too complex for me. lol
|
I'm not a pro at all, just like making quilt tops.My favs are Log Cabin & anything with stars.I like most applique, but can't do hand sewing,so just admire when I see it.

I've made lots of Yellow Brick Roads, Turning Twenty, and Crazy Eights. I want to learn to applique soon, but I am still gathering the supplies for this technique.

I like the log cabin. It's quick and easy peasy.
|
I just starting quilting 2 months ago, so I only know the 9 patch, 4 patch and triple rail. But the ones I WANT to do are dresden plate and double wedding ring.
|
I agree with others who like the log cabin -- in ALL its incarnations, round/twisted/courthouse steps/offset/etc.
To me the log cabin block is most effective with a minimum of 5 logs cut no more than 1.5" wide to finish at 1" wide. Also I feel it's more interesting with light/dark contrasts or with graded colors (from very light to medium on one side of the block, and medium to very dark on the other side of the block). The log cabin block is just a half-square triangle, so any design - such as an eight-point star - ccould be made using log cabin piecing, just larger. Jan in VA |
I love the French braid pattern. I've done two and choosing fabric for a third. Maybe that's what I like best (LOL) is choosing all those fabrics.
|
Jacob's Ladder
Storm at Sea Blockade are my three favorites |
Nine patch , and Log cabin for me; with an Ohio start thrown in for good measure.
|
I like Log Cabin blocks and Feathered Stars, basically, anything with points.
|
I really love the disappearing Four patch. I've made several blocks in that pattern. It's just Too fun. Haven't made a quilt yet because when I saw the tutorial (on this board), I was already committed to other things. However, a quilt in this pattern is in my very near future.

I REALLY like the disappearing 9-patch--so easy and looks complex! Brickwalk is pretty easy--so are Woven Ribbons and Jack's |
I think the GRANDMOTHER'S FAN IS REALLY MY FAVORITE, BUT I LOVE THE LOOKS OF THE BRAID TOO..
|
My new favorite is the Twister.I'm going to start cutting out the 10 inch squares soon.
|
My favorites are Stack & Whack, and my Avatar bargello.
|
My true favorites are the old patterns but now I'm getting addicted to all the new ones too!
I'd have to say Log Cabin and Irish Chain (and a bunch of others lol) |
When I started quilting many years ago, I did the Drunkard's Path alot. I made my own templates for whatever size block I wanted, usually made 12 inch finished blocks with 3 fabrics.
|
I lost something here, oh well! I like Quilter's Cache 12" blocks, no paper piecing and no applique'. The quilt I am working on right now has 48 blocks from Quilter's Cache and I love every one of them. Each block has only three colors - I found that also in Quilter's Cache. I try not to make them twice. I print out the pattern and if it is a good one, I mark it so, if not, I keep it, but mark it "no". At least this way I feel like I am learning something new with every block and will progress according to my timing (that is, when I darn well please). Edie

I think OBWs are my absolute favorite. I just love the way you totally change that original fabric print into something totally unexpected. Also that each one will be different from the next even if the same fabric is used.

Log cabin is my favorite
|
Log cabin
Ohio star |
Scrappy bowties and kids quilts with pinwheel and applique
|
My favorite "hurry up" quilt is Warm Wishes. I also like to make scrappy strip quilts. Most of my quilts are for charity.

Every single one I've made is my favorite. Then I quickly move on to my next favorite. I think I like scrappy quilts best, and I make them in traditional patterns.. There is just something so homey and comfortable about a nice cozy quilt.. I love to look at the complicated, the art, the perfectly planned, but I love to make the old favorites..
What a great idea, making your own sampler from quilter cache blocks.. I love that website. I go there when I just need something to strike my fancy! |
Bears paw and variations of them. I like blocks with lots of pieces. They're like jigsaw puzzles with fabric.
