Does anyone know of other quilts that look complicated but are actually fairly easy to make?

go back to the old standards, 9 patch, 4 patch, 5 patch. Most are HST, sometimes with solid squares. You can enlarge them to make one block the center section on a big quilt. One of my favorites that shows up here quite often is the Carpenter's Wheel. It's HST and solid blocks and looks wonderful as a lone center block.
