This one is my 'go to' wedding quilt. I do it in neutrals, but it would look good in your colors too. The pattern is called Whispered Lace in the book titled Modern Neutrals by Amy Ellis. All strip piecing, no triangles or anything complicated.

Trip Around the World can be strip pieced and you could use your three colors but just pick three or four fabrics of each color. There are tutorials on YouTube, and one of them is by Eleanor Burns.

A simple and pretty pattern is a 9P combined with a snowball patch. Use a stunning fabric for the center of the snowball and use accents for the rest. Also put it on point and you will get a bigger quilt for little work.

Day and Night quilt is very nice. Jenny from Missouri Star has a tutorial for a VERY easy hounds tooth quilt using 2 colors, you could use the third color for a border.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]511481[/ATTACH]I think this one is fast and easy and I did it as a quilt as you go.

I think a chevron quilt would look good in the colors you are using.

I don't have a pic to post but a very simply quilt that has gotten raves is Radient by Daniela Stout. I did it in dark grey, yellow and white. Google it there are lots of pics. Beautiful!

Mine was Quilter's Cache - 12" block - Floating Stars. It looks totally optical illusion. And it is so simple!

I have made a couple of them now. Fun, too. Edie
