This particular quilt is made using 12 Squares. Each square has 5 different colors counting the center. I cut them all 10" each but you can make a different size such as the baby 10 minute block.
There are 12 squares of blue, green, yellow. pink and the peace sign fabric. So, if you cut carefully or have an accuquilt cutter like I do, you could get 12 squares out of 1 yard of fabric.
I didn't have enough of any of them to do the back so I used a different yellow and rather than keep piecing the yellow to make it big enough I chose to put the peace sign border on it but it was kind of a booger.
But hey, if I can do it, anyone can do it.

And to those of you that have never made a 10 minute block, each square has only 3 seams in it. This is why it works up so fast.
