I just took 1/2 inch off all the squares in the nine patch which made them a finished size of 5 1/2 when I think it should have been a finished size of 6. So I wound up with the arrow parts being 1 1/2 inches to big after I sewed the squares together. I still think it came out ok and I will find something to do with the strip I am sewing out of the scraps. Thank you all for your help in choosing the color placement. When it is REALLY done I will post another pic.
IT IS REALLY BEAUTIFUL,LIKE SOMEONE SAID JUST DON'T SHOW THE ORIGINAL PATTERN.NICE JOB.
