    Oh, ****. That's what I thought - that the pieces were measured from outermost point to outermost point.

    I generally prefer to cut my own - I like to prewash before cutting - and definitely before sewing - and I like to check the grain-lines.

    Of course, the down side to that, is that it's hard to get a variety of squares without spending a fair amount of money.
