What i mean is, it wont matter if I do the whole pattern with a 1/2 inch seam, or a bit under 1/4 inch seam, as long as they are all the same.

The only thing that it will do, is make the finished top either smaller or bigger? Have i got that right?

I'd say smaller. But why not take several post-it notes (thick enough to guide your fabric) & place them 1/4 inch from the needle. Then they will help guide your fabric. Good luck & happy quilting!
