This one took me about 6 hours...... minus the quilter and binding!

I agree. These women who get these ideas have 6 hours to do it. I do Quilts for Kids that go rather quickly, but still takes me a couple days to get all of it done. Rabs, I used to live in Grand Ledge and spent a lot of my teenage time in Charlotte. Small world!

I think this is beautiful and it looks like it took a lot longer than 6 hours.

Twisted turning twenty? How did you do that? I have the turning twenty pattern. I have done that really quickly! I really like your quilt!

I will try and find a picture of the "Quick-n-Easy" But to describe it. It is not pieced but rather a single piece of interesting fabric appropriate to kids.
I tare it off at 36x45" or width of fabric.
I then fold it the long way and straighten as I press the center seam. Then fold that in half and press folds well and then again. I then have the piece folded and creased at about 4.5" the long way. These creases are the quilting lines. Sandwich the three layers and pin baste with 1" safety pins.
I then machine quilt in straight line on the creases. Trim all edges to square up. Apply the binding by machine and I then do the hand work while watching tv. I have not machine sewed the binding down which could be done.
Depending on the fabric pattern, it might be possible to use a line or pattern to use for quilting guide.
These are colorful, useful, quick to do and much appreciated. I feel that for quilts like this more is better.
I will usually do them in stages working on about 5 at the time. Cut and fold/press about 5, pin baste them, machine quilt and do the sewing of binding. Then I have a group to work on at night. Not all charity quilts need to be heirlooms.

I see where you just sliced down the middle of each block and turned, much like the dnp!

I have done a quilt in a day. from cutting to wash and dry but it was more like 12 hrs. I know I couldn't do it in 6. I am to slow for that.

If you have the strips of fabric and batting already cut and make a small quilt it can be done in 6 hours.If you have to pick the fabric,cut the strips and then cut the batting , no way for six hours.That is my opinion and am sticking to it . lol

I have noticed, the TV sewers such as Nancy Zieman, sew crazy fast. And of course, they have all the room to spread out, tools, etc. to make a project go smoother.

more like days and weeks for me. Been known to change my mind more than once. AND I have a friend that even ripped apart a finished top, replaced all the sawtooth borders to each block, added other fabrics and ended up with two gorgeous quilts. Haven't gone that far yet!
