i am a beginner quilter and would like to make each of my son-in-laws a throw quilt with their college colors and mascot fabrics. i want them to cherish it, but at the same time, i need it to be fairly easy so that i can complete 2 by christmas. some of the blocks need to be large enough to show a complete mascot picture from fabric, any pattern suggestions?

I've seen a college quilt that used a panel or large piece of print material treated as a panel for the center section of the quilt and then did a couple rows of pieced blocks around it in solids/tot's that matched the colors.
You can always alternate snowball blocks (main fabric be the college print) with a 9-patch. See my post here for ideas: http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-156978-1.htm#4338311
