Thank you so much. I was just curious.
Hi, the book I used One Block Wonders Encore includes some patterns for some cubes. There is also a third book by the same authors called "OBW Cubed" and that has directions for even more cubes. It is just a fun way to add color and dimension to OBW quilts. I don't know that there is a formula for where to add them, it is totally up to the designer to decide if and where to add cubes.
Hope this answers your questions. :P

I see now that it is one block wonder but I have no idea what kind of pattern that is.

It is a technique where you line up your one fabric repeats and cut them into little triangles that you match up to create cool kaleidoscopes. It is similar to stack and whack if you heard of these.

Yes, I did a sort of a stack and whack a couple of years ago. I think I would like to try it but right now I have some projects that have to be done by summer.
Seems like I am always behind.
