Google phone book quilt blocks and you will find what you need.
You just take an old phone book and cut the size block you want to make. Then you take strips beginning with diagonal corners and keep adding them on both sides of the center strip. Uses both longer and shorter strips and odd corners as you go. They are kind of like crumb quilt blocks but mine are about 8 and a half inches square. They can be sewn together in several different configurations. Don't tear the paper off until they are all sewn together. Then spray paper side with water and give a minute and then the paper just comes right off.
