The first pattern that popped into my head was Hunter's Star, but an Irish Chain quilt would be beautiful in red and white.

Burgoyne Surrounded is a great two color quilt.

I have been collecting red and white fabrics for a quilt myself. I'm thinking about doing a Log Cabin Star or an Ohio Star block quilt with various reds and whites. Think it would be pretty!

Someone posted a link the other day to a perfect pattern. It is free from Blank Quilting. It is called red hot flash. It is an easy pattern too.

My granddaughter has been accepted to SJU their colors are you guessed Red and White – this is going to be her first time away from home. I thought that she can take a piece of comfort from home with her if she was to take her comforter which she has named “cloud” and has had for years. So I thought why not make her a duvet with the school colors and she can still take comfort when she is wrapped in her cloud. Can you suggest a pattern that would have two colors? Thank you in advance for any and all help.

Heart quilt

I loved making this. I made up my own template, but BEWARE! I ironed fusible pellon onto the blue fabric, but when I cut the hearts in half and flipped one side over, the pellon was on top! So I ended up with another quilt. . one had blues on left and whites on right, the other visa versa! But the heart sentiment would be appropriate for yours and I think red would look good, too.

Square in square but reverse the colours. red centre with white, white centre with red
|
Irish Chain/Jacob's Ladder either would be my choice. Lucky GD to have DGM like you!!

Love your heart pattern! |
there is an absolutely beautiful red and white quilt in the newest connecting threads catalog. I want to make it myself it is so stunning. You can purchase the pattern or a queen size kit. Check it out on line. Its called the Paris Flea Market quilt

Great video.o many ideas to pick from. Thanks for sharing.

What about Ohio stars, using the quick piecing method? See quilting.about.com. Then quilt patterns. Others sites show a fancier center. You could add any border you wanted. Let us know what you choose.

How about a pinwheel

A good 2 colr quilt pattern is called "Four Fun" by Mountian Peak Creations. Its all strip pieceing and four patches. It make a great beginner quilt.

Thank you all for your wonderful suggestions– I am going to research each one and see what fits her personality the best. Everyone on this board is so helpful and wonderful. You should know that my zealous for quilting comes from this board what you find on this board is everyone willing to help and the best part no judgment. Also thank you for the reminder of washing the fabric (red) several times to make sure it doesn’t bleed. So from my heart Thank you all.

Hunter's Star, and I'd get the piecing templates by Deb Tucker.

Good Morning it’s me again - I just wanted to say that I went through each and every suggestion given to me by you all. Then I did a search for Jacob’s ladder and I noticed that YouTube had a tutorial by Missouri Star Quilt Co. by Jenny herself and guess what the colors were that’s correct RED & WHITE – it was beautiful and perfect. So I just wanted to take the time to say Thank you to each and everyone one of you. You all are amazing.
