There are 4 blocks,, plus sashing across top & bottom, with 1 block on each side with sashing.

Shouldn't the center block be equal in size to 2 of the border blocks? or at least smaller , since there is a sashing strip between them ?

yes, but because everyone has liked the ruched rose, I am adding another swag border around the center block, which has changed the calculations

you're very astute, picked up on the change, maybe next month you can be my proofreader?

updated photo with new swag ruched border.

I love the second swag border around the center!!! Thanks for doing this! As soon as I figure out how to post a picture, I'll post my center block.

Does the change in the center block change the size? I am getting just a little confussed. I made my center block the 17 1/2 " as directed so now what?

Sure, I'll be happy to proofread . I love this pattern, have the center done but hesitated to start the corners .I was afraid of not having enough background if I had to recut. Thanks

Keep going, center block did not change,, when I added the swag I changed the outer. Border which we did not do yet. I won' t changed anything you have completed.

You will have enough I changed the width of the outer border which will accommmodate the change in adding the swag.
