    I am a newbie too, and I am horrible at sizing blocks. I know how frustrating that can be. The good news is you are super creative, so you have tons to fall back on.

    If you want really simple, you can do an uneven 9-patch. That way, you only have to cut some of the charm squares and the blocks can be set off with a plain alternating block or sashing.
