I found a Windmill pattern that uses 2 different colors and have jelly rolls I'm using. The pattern says to sew two 2" wide strips of each color together and then cut into 3 1/2" pieces to make a 6" block. (There are other measurements to use with wider strips.) Four of the 3 1/2" pieces are used to make the block but when I lay it out 2 of the 4 pieces are about 1/4" too long/wide than the other 2. This can't be that hard because it's so simple. What am I doing wrong? Here's a link in case I haven't explained myself well enough. http://www.suite101.com/content/easy...blocks-a235661
I'd appreciate anyone who could take a look. Thanks! :-)
