I have tried Charms and like them. You get a large variety of a fabric line in usually 5 inch squares but I have seen them in 10 inchs.
I just used them in the square form but you can cut them up for say half square tiangles. It takes about 3 or 4 paks for a small lap quilt. You will also need to match to the fabric line for borders.
I made one quilt from 1880 fabrics for a very old looking quilt that I just used embroidery thread to tack each square with as they used to do for the quilting. It turned out really nice.
