I am definitely going to do this one - how easy!

I like the simple 9 patch idea, but you could also do pinwheels, have them all go the same direction and it would be a neat looking quilt, sashing or no sashing

The fabrics I have are an understated yellow pattern, with blue flowers and light green leaves on cream background, and I have cream solid.
I just finished a "Take 5" for my Neice... it went real fast and I love the way it looks... |

It works with just two fabrics too. Either variation sounds wonderful ! |
