    Have you ever made "Bailey's Quilt" (pattern by Two Chicks designs). I've made a couple in batiks and they go together quick! Fat Quarters - blocks, setting triangles & borders and you're done!
    Good luck!

    Here's one that's so easy and fast, the guild had a race one night to see who could finish theirs first. It's called a "Lasagna" quilt and is made from a jelly roll (all precut 2-1/2" x WOF strips and color/collection coordinated).

    There's a video at the site as well as free instructions. The fastest I've seen so far:

    Hope this helps.

    Turning Twenty Again and Yellow Brick Road. Have made many of these and they are really easy and quick to make.

    Sounds like you are wanting to do a quilt that is going to uh..um..work your mind a bit. Why not do a bargello. I have done one (short twin size) start to finish in seven days. A member here did one start to "getting along pretty good on the quilting" in eight days while camping. If you take two weeks for each quilt you would be in business and might even be able to get three done :) lol

    I just made a top from the pattern "City Scapes" after a day of sewing the top was complete. It wasn't a full day since we went shopping for a couple hours but it took longer to lay it out then any thing else. It's a really simple design and there were no seams to match up!

    One Block Wonders go together very quickly. I layered, pinned together, cut strips, tirangles and sewed half hexagons in 4 hours for a 4' X 5' quilt.

    I like this one.
    It is made with 6 fabrics - three lights and three medium or darks and from pieces cut 3"x5.5"
    Or the tube quilts make up very easy using 2.5" wide strips.

    I really like the Warm Wishes quilt; very easy to make and looks great. I'm pretty sure it's a free pattern on the internet. D9P is a good one too. This picture is WW's, not a very good picture though.

    BQ is also a good choice for a fast quilt. The blocks are big, so it doesn't take so many. And it's all straight seams.

    And I agree about Warm Wishes, too. It's really fast and easy. And you can really create an impact with your color choices. The pattern can be found on the Quiltmaker website.

    Bargello quilt is super easy but looks really difficult
