Looks like Simple charm blocks to me (4" or 5" charms...could be larger?)

There's one that looks like a rail block - but my guess would be it's just using striped fabric...great idea!

I have this book it is just charm squares with different sizes and colors show, I was not impressed, I could sew blocks together without the book. Yes and the one is just striped fabric. I thought it would be helpful for my 8 year old DGD but she had already made that kind of quilt.

not sure what the technique is and looks like we have to buy the book, so I posted to see if anyone had this book to let us know what it is all about, thanks

Ok I just looked at the book and they sew columns together then lay out the backing and batting, Mark the center and sew the center two columns , flip open and press, add next column etc till you have all the columns sewn to the batting and backing. It is a kind of quilt as you go method. Bind and it is done.

I have this book...it is mostly 6x6"square and strips. Perfect for beginners. The library should have these w/o you having to buy one, What is the price you see quoted?
