New quilt project

Sure, you could easily do 4 quilts between now and ... June? July? I'd pick

4 different colors and keep to a simple 9-patch alternating with plain blocks, one in each color. (About to start a scrappy one in blues myself.) Also known as Single Irish Chain.. Whatever you make, they will be blown away! Roberta in D

I'm in awe of anyone who would even aspire to this much less actually do it. lol I'd suggest Warm Wishes.

It looks complicated but it's very easy to make and very versatile.

I think I'd lean toward Single Irish Chain, too. You could use a larger print for the plain blocks. The 9-patches go fast with chain piecing. A nine-inch block would go pretty fast.

How about a sampler type quilt..... only 4 of each block, but several different simple blocks. With sashing and borders it wouldn't take much.

4-patch(or double 4-patch if large block), 9-patch(or double), snowball, shoo-fly, split 9-patch, and so on. If you did 12" blocks, set 3x3, with 3" sashing and inner border. Add a 6" border and you have a 60" quilt.

Very doable in my opinion. But not sure I would want to do 4 quilts that size the same pattern for all the blocks. hmmmmmmmmm although it is pretty close to making a king size quilt block number wise, probably.
