Another "what size" post :)

This is a quilt design I sketched up (on paper) awhile ago. I'm using Paint to sketch this now (and definitely not at work while doing this :shock: ). The goal is for the seams to actually, you know, line up and whatnot so disregard anything that looks slightly off, just because it's Paint).

But there are 2 size rectangles. 1 will be square (I know to cut 7/8" - 1" larger than finished size). I'm stumped on the rectangle. I want it to be (finished) twice as long as it is wide. So what size do I start with???

To pick a number, let's say the finished square is 4" (so cut 4 7/8" ) and the finished rectangle is 4"x8". What size piece do I start with???
