I'm sorry no one answered your question. If you haven't removed the paper, that could be taking up some room and it would press out larger after the paper is removed. Mine I did as standard paperpiecing was a little smaller than 12-1/2 but I was able to size it up where it should be. The one I did the freezer paper method was 12-1/2.
I used the freezer paper method and removed the paper but it still came out a little small. I'm sure it's my fault since I'm just learning this pp mehod. I'm going to redo it. Thanks for the reply. Everyone is doing such a wonderful job and all the blocks are beautiful!
