    I have 6 fat quarters to make a small quilt with, and would like something really easy and quick. Any ideas?

    I am going to make a warm wishes quilt because I like the pattern. If you search 'easy quilts' or 'easy quilt patterns' I think you will get a lot of ideas.

    you might be able to make a table topper or a table runner with your Fat Quarters (FQ's).

    There are tons of simple blocks that you can find if you Google beginner quilting patterns, or visit the Quilters Cache - there are little pins by the block names that say the level of the block. One pin is easy, two intermediate etc.

    I hope you find what you're looking for and that you post pictures when you're done. :)

    Here are two pictures of the finished quilt that I made with the 6 fat quarters. It is stitched with all over meandering quilting, and I am very rusty and need lots of practice. The backing fabric looks like newspaper with dog stuff on it. Yep, I made it for my dog, T'Fille.

    Here she is, sitting on my quilt top that I will be shipping to Missouri Quilt Co for quilting--it is too big to quilt on my machine.

    Wow that was quick! I love the quilt-it's gorgeous. The dog is adorable and it looks like she likes her new woobie. She matches the quilt. lol
