I recommend buying her book, as she has some good techiques that will help you get the block to lay right, and lots of pictures for ideas of block placement. Amazon is a cheaper way to go.
I agree with Suzie, I have made at least 4 LC's using Eleanor Burns Log Cabin Quilt in a Day book. I love her method. I can't say anything about other authors and their methods, as I haven't tried theirs. But I highly recommend her book, if you don't have it I suggest that you get it, just my opinion. I love her method and think it is really quick and easy to do.
