Maxine Rosenthal came up with One Block Wonder quilts. There are 3 books, and I used OBW Encore - which includes patterns for the cubes. She gives directions for stacking fabrics in 6 layers and cutting triangles. Instead of sewing the hexagons, you just sew HALVES of hexes and play with them on your design wall. When you're happy with the design, you sew them in rows. When you sew the rows together, the hexagons are comleted.

Clear as mud? That's why you need one of Maxine's books! There's a whole section of the Board devoted to OBWs.
