How to Make Paper Quilts
When our great grandmothers were little girls they spent many hours piecing blocks for quilts. Some of these blocks were simply squares cut from cloth, while others consisted of several sections put together to form a pretty design. Let's create a quilt design from a square of wrapping paper. Fold the desired square or block several times as shown in figure 1. Straight edges are always easier to cut and sew. Color sections of the folded square with crayon to create a design, as seen in figure 2. Keep this for a guide. Then make an exact copy of your designed block. Cut it apart. Use sections as patterns from which to cut the various pieces of cloth needed to make your quilt block. Allow one-fourth inch all the way around each piece. Use this allowance to sew the block sections together. Be sure to consult the guide frequently during the sewing process. Make as many blocks as are needed to meet the measurements of your quilt.

When I asked her how she made quilts with her kids, she told me what she did.
