I don't have one favorite but especially like Stretched Stars, an Indian Hatchet type of block, great for I Spy children's quilts. Another pattern am fond of is Jack in the Pulpit, many possibilities with this block.

If you have yardage, I like the 5 yard quilt from mill end textiles. You can see lots of examples if you google the image. Here is the free pattern. http://www.millendtextiles.com/attac...yard_quilt.pdf

Seems like the fabrics tell me what to do with them, so I listen and obey. Generally, I don't use patterns, just make the pattern up as I go. They're not too fancy, but most of the time they get nice compliments.
I do like checkerboard quilts when I have two fabrics that work for that design. They can be quite striking, are all strip piecing and go very fast. I usually put a couple of borders on them to set them off.
Even so, I've only made about three of them.
