Help! Please - I need a quilt top, quick
 
I need a quilt top, quick. I've been asked to be in an online video for my LQS. I'll be working on the rental longarm quilting machine. I only do one quilt at a time, so I don't have any tops laying around. I have a collection of 26 hawaiian print fat quarters. I would love suggestions on how to get a top ready quickly. I appreciate any suggestions.

Turning Twenty. It is a fast pattern based on scrappy fat quarters.

I have several tops that are pieced and ready to go......LMK if you would like me to send you one to quilt and then send it back to me to bind???? Messages can go private if you wish...I check this site several times a day!

do a variation of the 9 block, cut blocks 4 1/2 inches. 3 rows of 3, make all the center blocks white, after 9 block is made cut evenly in quarters, mix them up and turn so that 2 little white squares are point to point, you'll see the pattern when you lay the rows together the white blocks are set in each row of 2 just finished a top that way and am ready to get it quilted I also put a 2 and 4 inch border on the quilt

Yes! In the book they say you can do it in a day. I'm not that fast, but it is a speedy quilt. And would look great done in Hawaiian prints. Let us know! Y'know... like pictures & all...

Just what you need to do one of Eleanore Burns' Quick Quarter quilts. They work up really fast. I'm hooked on this pattern and I usually don't like doing the same pattern more than once.

The Turning Twenty CAN be made in LESS THAN A DAY!!!!!! This is my "go to pattern" when I need a quilt in a hurry.
