OK what size squares do I start with to get a 4 inch square???

2" squares will make a 4 1/2" unfinished friendship star. I send out free templates if you want to use a template to cut your squares.

I also have a tutorial for making easy HSTs if you want.

Or you can use a 1 1/2" template and make an ohio star.
4 rows with 4 blocks in each row will make a 4 1/2" unfinished quilt block.
