I used 4" squares to make a nine patch pattern. After I completed all of the 9 patches I stopped to measure them and square them up before I began to attach the 9 patch units together.

Here's the problem...each nine patch square is a different size, varying from 10.25inches to 11 inches. Common sense says to make each unit the same as the smallest size.

Is that what I want to do? How do I do it? If I just trim the outside edges, aren't some of my squares going to turn into rectangles? Is there a better option?


All suggestions considered, except taking the units apart!
