If you are really interested, i would get the book, One Block Wonders, either by purchase or from the library:

It is a very easy quilt, on a scale of 1-10, i would rate it a 2. You need fabric that has an EXACTLY repeating pattern, so a batik can't be used as they usually are hand stamped.

A OBW is a specific type of kalidescope quilt where there are no contrasting fabrics used.
Here are examples from our board. Easier to show than explain.

This is the exact type of quilt I want to make. Thank you!
