What could be easier, math-wise, than a quilt block in a 10 inch size? Surprisingly, the 10" block is not the most commonly used size, (that would be the 12" block), but there are still many quilt blocks that fit into this category and here is my list of currently available patterns.

Baton Rouge Square

Free Quilt Block Pattern

With a name like Baton Rouge Square, well I just had to throw some red into the block. In fact, I made it the background colour.

This five patch quilt block is a simple one to make as it contains only half square triangles and squares. Even though it is technically a five patch design, it is sewn as an uneven nine patch for ease in construction.

This quilt block is also a nice deviation from the regular 12" blocks that are so frequently seen. However, many quilters like the math in the 10" type of quilt blocks.
