Not sure I've figured this correct but I get the following if the fabric is 45" wide x 36" (allowing for selvedge waste):

5 rows of gives 10 (to 11) 4x4 each row = 50 4x4 (20" of the fabric)
1 row w/2 4x4 & 12 3x3 (4" of the fabric)
That uses 24" of the fabric leaving 12" - plenty for remaining 3x3.

Hope I've figured this right - all you experts please correct me if I'm wrong. :?:

Have a blessed day & may all your quilts be filled w/love
