My two youngest grandsons have asked me for a quilt with their favorite football teams...Since I don`t want to cut up the fabric into pieces that are too small, I decided to make one using the Warm Wishes pattern...however I would like to use a different pattern for the second quilt...any ideas? Thanks, Evelyn

Have you considered a disappearing nine patch?

Snowball quilts show off fabric nicely since you can leave them in big chunks. That would be the route I would go. You can jazz it up with a fun corner tip colors when you square them off ;)

How about a 9 Patch Pizzaz? http://www.judysisneros.com/9%20Patch%20Pizzazz.htm

I just watch a tutorial on 10 minute blocks and they really are 10 minutes after you do the cutting. Anyway you can make the squares any size. I made mine 9" and the blocks are nice a big so it would really show off the team fabrics.

disappearing 9 patch

how about the snapshot.

Wow!!. I HAVE toquit spending time on here and more time in my sewing room. I have learned so much here that I may NEVER make all the ones I have swirling around in my head.

I agree.

Also, a window quilt would show it off.

There is a pattern called Just Can't Cut It that is intended for larger print focus fabric or fabric you simply can't bear to cut into smaller pieces. It is also quick and easy!
