I love the 10 min block. Sorry I can't include a pic but I'm posting from my iPhone.

One of my favorites is to just make half square triangle blocks using a light and a dark. You can then arrange them into any log cabin layout.

It depends on how complex we're talking. For an easy, quick quilt, I usually make Yellow Brick Road or a Turning Twenty. For something slightly more complex, I go to Log Cabin quilts or an easy block like the Ohio Star, Disappearing Nine Patch, etc.

Mine would be the Turning Twenty quilt. Even if one doesn't have FQ's on hand, they can be cut from what is available from one's stash...

Turning Twenty! It can be totally scrappy, but I prefer to use some of the same fabric in multiple blocks to give the quilt a bit of continuity. I made an Asian Turning Twenty for my daughter and a Turning Twenty with darker, more masculine colors for my husband. You can't tell I used the same pattern for both quilts.

Wow, that is gorgeous!

If I need to make a quilt quickly, I make a Rag Quilt - so easy, cutting and sewing do not have to be perfect, no borders or binding necessary, and no squaring up blocks!

I like making tumbler quilts for children. the 30 min.quilt for lap quilts, and the turning 20 becomes 25 for a fast quilt to have on hand. there are hundreds I have saved but not made yet. I love making ohio stars and can't wait to do a bed size quilt with those.

I love your quilt but can you please tell me how you can make it in a day? Always open to suggestions.
