Hi CJ,

I don't think charm packs would work for this particular method. As far as I can see the nine patch blocks would work out at 6 1/2 inches square so the white blocks need to be 6 1/2 inches square also. I haven't used charm packs yet but I believe they would be 5 inches square, so too small. However, given my inexperience, I'm sure someone else would be more knowledgeable on the subject that I am.

Hope this helps

Ro
