One of my favorite patters is called Bits and Pieces by Mountainpeek Creations.
It is a fast easy pattern and I have probably made about 25 of these or more. I currently have 3 in the works as wedding gifts.
It is a fat quarter type pattern, but works really well with 1/4 yard pieces. I can cut the fabrics and put the blocks together in an evening for a large lap size. I usually quilt it on the diagonal with a fancy stitch. Since each one has different fabrics and colors, I have not gotten bored with it yet cause they all end up looking different. It is the pattern I turn to when I want to get something done pretty quick. I usually make a large lap which calls for 12 fat quarters or quarter yards. I like using lots of fabrics in a quilt
