Has anyone made a quilt of just ten inch square pieces?

I made this quilt for my husband several years ago, it's his favorite.
It has 8" squares and a 6" border all the way around.

Dina, for the quilts for the boys ranch check out MSQC Big Wonky Star quilts--go together fast and can be very manly if right fabric choosen. My guild used this pattern for a mentoring project with high school FACS class of boys and girls--works great cause the fabric really defines it.

I have done 2 of these. 1 was 42 squares of Kaffe with a fleece back for someone going to Denver for surg. Got a thank you that said it was perfect for snuggling on the way home. The 2nd was a 21 pc. with fleece baking that I am using as a lap quilt.

My mom wanted to learn to make a quilt, and that's exactly what we did. No muss, no fuss, just sewed the big 10" squares together and then I quilted it for her. I wouldn't have picked the colors she did (we used scrap fabric, basically, and most of it was Wal-Mart quality!), but I made no comments and just let her do it. She decided to use an old sheet for the back because she didn't want to spend money on backing. It now sits on the wooden trunk at the foot of my bed and reminds me of her every day. Not the prettiest quilt in my house, but the one with the most meaning.
