My favorite easy quilt is my Anita's Arrowhead quilt. I made it in civil war fabrics. It was quite easy to make and the overall effect is stunning. (Now back to being humble...)

Mine was Quilter's Cache - 12" block - Floating Stars. It looks totally optical illusion. And it is so simple!
I couldn't find that block on Quilter's Cache. ?

My favorite quick quilt is Sweet & Simple by Designs by Lavender Lime. http://www.lavenderlimeinspires.com/...e-sku-DLL1.htm
It takes 3 fabrics plus an inner border fabric. Very fast and it is a great pattern to show a beautiful fabric you don't want to cut it up into small pieces. Also great for neutrals and one accent color for a wedding quilt. I've made probably 15 of these because they are quick, simple, and beautiful.

Go to: http://www.quiltersdreamtx.com and under online store click on patterns. The Magic Trip around the World is actually easy and can be made in less than a week.

I would have to say Boxed Squares. I've made this pattern 12 times.

These Disappearing 9 Patch quilts are my 'go to' quickie wedding gift quilts! People seem to really like the pattern.

What about Totally Triangular? You only need four fabrics and if one is a large scale print this pattern highlights it. Very striking. It's not a big quilt, 57" x 73 1/2", but perhaps it could be expanded? Here's a link to the pattern. My picture didn't upload.
