For each of my foundation blocks I have taken the measurements from a "proper" block, so then (if it worked out O.K.) I have it ready to use.

I hope this explains the difference. Knowing that I am a slow worker and being late getting started, I was trying to save a bit of time with the foundations.

Sorry if I created any confusion.
Thanks Deecee and Lara for clearing this up. I did not go
to the actual blocks themselves. I'm so glad I asked,
because I don't want to waste time and fabric doing practice
blocks, but would rather make the actual foundation block that will be used in the blocks themselves. Maybe if I had read further, I would have figured it out :). Anyway, thanks
for the explanation.
Have a Great Day!
