Ideas For A Reunion Quilt
 

Last year at my family reunion a cousin asked if I had brought a quilt to auction off. The thought had never occurred to me, but I loved it, so I told her I'd make one for this year's reunion...and forgot about it, lol. So, I'm looking for a fast quilt to make up before this year's reunion on July 6th. I know there are so many fast quilts out there, but I wanted something appropriate for a family reunion. Any thoughts?

I had started some blocks where the centers could be used for a signature. Of course it isn't done but maybe I can work on finishing it for next year. I just placed multi-colored 1/2 square triangles around a white center. Our reunion isn't big enough to raffle a quilt off but the quilt could be given to the organizers of the reunion. If you didn't want to make a signature quilt you could do a disappearing 9 patch -- they always look great.

Rail fence with light center for signatures would be really fast.....

I've just been watching videos of the Jelly Roll Race. Super fast. I prefer the #2 version with the white square attached in-between each strip. And I was thinking of doing it just using strips I cut myself.

The jelly roll race 2 goes super fast

You could do the Jelly Roll Race and have solid rectangles between strips for signatures.

A pattern called cake walk is really fast. You use a layer cake and half of a charm pack. It was in a book and I don't remember the name of it.

I have been making Falling Charms quilts but cutting my own 5 inch squares. The tutorial is from Missouri Star Quilt Co. It is so easy and fast but looks way more complicated than it is. You can easily make the top in a couple of days.

How about one of Evelyn Sloppy's huge quilts? Huge pieces - comes together quickly.

Or how about a giant Carpenter's Star?
