I just made 2 of these from one layer cake for QFK. I love them and will do more, they are fun and fast. No reason why you couldn't make your own blocks from, say 8" squares, to change it up a bit. I also like doing the jelly roll strippy quilts. They are my go to for charity quilts, as every one looks different when finished. You can adjust the size by trimming some of the width and using that for a strip in the backing. I also like just doing a rail fence.
