this is probably one of the situations where EQ7 would be better, but this one i designed in my EQ5. the quilt is 66x66 with borders of 1.5, 3, and 1.5. i cannot get the measurements for the patches of the 9p on point [i could probably do that with graph paper as the 9p's are 3" diagonally]. the inner blocks are 3".

(Only because that's the way I would construct it.)
My bad.

3 / 1.414 = 2.122 ...round up to 2.125"
The beauty of Elizabeth's quilt is that the inner and outer 9-patches are the same size.
