I have an 8.5 block and I want to cut two contrasting materials and place them back to back and sew down the center to make a triangle on each side but I want it to come out to an 8 size block. what size should the two contrasting colors be.
Can someone help. I am new at quilting but want all the blocks to be 8 inches some solids and some with contrasting color.
Your help is so appreciated.
