Evelyn Sloppy's book, Sew One and You're Done, includes 19 one-block quilts that measure 45 to 56 inches on a side. These quick quilts are made with few fabrics cut into large pieces. This compact quilt size makes nice crib or lap quilts but your can make four of these large blocks to assemble a queen-sized quilt without lots of extra work on sashing and borders. The extra large patches make piecing very fast and easy for everyone including those with hand limitations that inhibit your ability to handle lots of small pieces. Long, straight seams take less time to sew than lots of small seams because you have less matching of pieces to do. Evelyn chose interesting blocks with several pieces and added pieced borders to make each block seem like a small quilt instead of a piece of a quilt.The other benefit of making quilts from this book is that they limit the number of fabrics from three to five choices per quilt. I have lots of nice fabric that doesn't work well with my current working style that I can use to make up a few of this quick quilts to have on hand for donations to my favorite charities when their quilt drives come up.
