French braid quilts are really beginner friendly- easy quilts- they just look like they take a long time- the most difficult part is truly choosing a 12-color run.

Trip Around the World is easy and looks like you spent forever piecing all those squares. Eleanor Burns method can be made in an afternoon an then add your time for quilting it.

Tartan is right, MSQC Merry go round quilt. I just made one and it is super easy and quick. I just increased the size from what Jenny made. Made it start to finish in couple of days.

Ditto Tartan....the MSQC Marry Go Round Quilt would be awasome made up in batiks for a more modern feel.

Here's one I've done twice now - two fabrics, simple squares and rectangles. It's great to showcase a large print fabric, too.

The Easy Trip Around the World is easy, fast, and fabulous! It looks way harder to make than it actually is and turns out beautifully every time! I've just finished piecing one and can hardly wait to start the next one.

I am thinking any of the Turning Twenty quilts would do or a Warm Wishes quilt. I have seen both and they are quite pretty and rather quick to make also.

Wow! Beautiful colors! Is that put together with fabric, batting and batting sewn at the same time? (Like a QAYG)

I've not made one yet, but my mom says the Disappearing 9 Patch is the easiest she's made yet. And she has made lots of quilts. She uses 4 1/2" squares to make the original 9 Patch. But you could save time using precut
5" charm squares.
