Make a 9-Patch from bright colored childrens prints. Choose 2 colors, and strip piece. It will go together quickly.
No pattern required.

Rail Fence is quick and easy. My personal all-time favorite is an Irish Chain, aka 9patch with alternating plain block. But a really neat one is a Friendship Star, if you want to put a little more work into it by making the 1/2 sq triangles. If you are into making 1/2 sq triangles, pinwheels are a cute baby quilt, too. So many ideas, so little time!!!

I fell in love with the fabric, Alexander Henry 2005, Let's Play House", which was on the quiltedtaffy website listed in your message. I have been searching for it for 2 hours on the net. I cannot locate it anywhere. Any suggestions?

Thanks and have a great day!

Try this pattern. It is very easy and one I use a lot for baby quilts.

I have been doing rag baby quilts, can make one in a weekend. I got a little creative and started making the blankies to match.

4 Patch 1 Patch is quick and super easy, and can be so striking! Have you made a raggy quilt yet? Turning 20 Again? Or perhaps a Bargello, nothing simpler than that

Pic is sideways, those are kitties on the feature fabric. I used a 1/4 inch border around the feature fab to outline it better

SO easy, using large prints

A friend made this, I might have used a solid, dark red, narrow inner border on it

This is a simple way to make a really cute 9 patch. You start with 5 or 6 inch strips, make 4 patches and then subcut and resew into 9 patches.

Have you thought about doing a baby quick trip...takes 6 fat quarters and makes up very fast...very little to match...


Cardtrick is also very easy

Pinwheels are always fun for a baby - or snowballs. You can always do a 4-patch. All of these are simple to do. Good luck.
