They have LOTS of quilt block patterns that are very simple. My first pieced quilt was made as a sampler with many different easy block patterns so I got that experience of making different designs. I chose 12 inch blocks and looked for ones without too many pieces. Good luck.

This is a fantastic site. Usually on the second page you can see how other people have made the same quilt with different colors and different borders.
You'll definitely love the site!

According to Barnes & Noble, it's easy. Here is their link:

Found the following page that shows the actual quilts in the book. From the pictures, I would say that some of the quilts are easy but some are more in the intermediat range.
