The charm quilts I have seen use "charm packs"
Is this what you are talking about?

Charm is the size of a piece of fabric , usually 5 inches... so a charm quilt would just be a quilt made using this size of blocks , maybe

Another definition I've heard - all the pieces are the same shape, and every piece is a different fabric.

A charm block is a fabric packet of assorted 5 in squares.
A charm quilt is a scrappy quilt with no two fabric pieces the same. Or at least that's what I was always told.

You should be able to make a wall hanging or small throw from a charm packet.
