This pattern has directions to creating a throw size to king size quilt.  It is quite spectacular made from batiks....the colors can really flow to make a very artistic rendition!  You might also consider using traditional fabrics and colors.

Directions are included for making a throw size to king size quilt.  A great quilt made with 4 patches and alternate blocks that set up a visually interesting design.

This pattern is another way to use fat quarters that will really show off a fabric collection.

Make this quick quilt out of 40's or 50's reproduction fabrics and you have created a quilt with a "retro" feel, or use more traditional fabrics for a nine patch with a twist.  The center of each block can be "fussy cut" to incorporate an interesting section of your fabric selection.  How about some of the 40's fabrics with sailors or cowboys for a young gentleman?
