The square in a square method by Jodi Barrows is the easiest. It uses 45 degree angles. You have to plan your color changes ahead of time though as different fabrics will be on different corners of the square. Marci Baker's "Not Your Grandmothers Tumbling Blocks" looks easy too. It uses strip piecing and 60 degree angles. She has a short video showing how it's done.

Here's the quilt I did using the square in a square method. I've outlined a few blocks to help you see the layout. The square in a square blocks are staggered and the sides are finished with flying geese. I believe these were 4" finished blocks. There were a lot of cutoff triangles using this method that I had high hopes of turning into a miniature quilt. They are saved somewhere in my stash. I would like to try Marci Baker's way too.
