They are probably all squared up again before sewing together.
The quilt in the fourth pic is done the same way, but with only one cut into the square, and using pieced strips added inbetween the two halves of the square. The added pieced strips would turn the squares into rectangles, and in the pic they are all squares again, so they must be cut down into squares again before sewing them all together.
Thanks! They make sense when you know how they are assembled. And unless I can see the order of seams I can never figure these things out from pictures...
