The instructions say to sew a 7 1/4" strip to the long side of the two 3" and the one 2 1/2" squares, but! the 7 1/4" is too short by 1/4". no way around that. Did the author write it wrong?

Take 3+2.5+3= 8.5 now minus seam allowances sewn on a completed block=7.5

How do I sew a 7 1/4" to 7.5"?! Let me show you my block and Give a link to directions hope someone can help me out.
