The Fabric Cafe are responsible for the 3 Yard Quilts books. This is a series of books which take three one yard cuts of a dark, a medium and a light for each pattern to make a quilt. They also have a You Tube channel which I have to admit is a guilty pleasure. There they detail other kits which you can buy to make featured quilts. They give you a lot of ideas of the same quilt pattern with different colourways for different effects; and whilst I admit that I haven't actually bought any of their books yet (because I would rather spend my scarce money on fabric) I find it interesting how all the presenters seem to have a signature style. I find it sparks my ideas for the colours in my own quilts for when I can't find precuts and want to use yardage.
Whilst browsing on the home page I found they have some sew-a-longs so here they are all in one place.
