I think I could scale these down a row in width and height to have something to work on that is not too big and is easy enough to reinforced a few of the squares I learned in class.

Both can be done with strip piecing which goes really fast. The one they call Simple four patch, an alternating four patch with a single block, is particularly nice for baby and kid quilts where I want to use a big novelty print that I don't want to cut up into little pieces (or for a grownup using a big floral). It's also fun for an alphabet quilt where there's a different novelty print in the single blocks for each letter of the alphabet. My first ever quilt (that actually got all the way finished) was a rail fence. ------ Tess On threadpainting flowers: "How many colors are in a flower? ... How many do you have?" - Ellen Anne Eddy

I think you're right too that you can reduce it by a row width and height and it will still have the same overall effect. ------ Cathryn

A four-block wallhanging, with the blocks each 9 or 10 inches, with a 2-4 inch border is not much more difficult than any of these and as you gain confidence you might find these more interesting to do. ------ Barb
