Default I don't get what the 'reciept' is for when making string quilts

Hi.. I've been watching and I just don't get it.. I've been trying to figure out why people 'sew' onto reciepts to make string quilts. Wouldn't it be the same if you just sew the fabric together to begin with? Also.. I have lots of 'small' pieces and I see lots of people put them together and use them as crumb quilts. So how are these put together? I mean.. if they are small and you use a 1/4" seam how is that going to work.. don't they need to be turned under so they won't unravel? I know lots of questions sorry... thanks ladies
