Is what you plan to do a block? that you will make several of? If so, take the current length of the sides, & divide by the width of your block (the finished size) Then measure the top & bottom, adding the new width w/the sides, & divide again. This sometimes requires an adjustment & I find that cornerstones work great, because then you can make all four sides the same, placing corner stones to make it all come out evenly.
Hope that is clear :? it's hard to explain some things without showing you :)
