Ok.........so this is NOT my day to be cutting a quilt!
Pattern states 8" block (sawtooth star) and advised to cut four 2.5" squares and four 2.5"x 4.5" rectangles for the "flying geese" of each star. I used measurements of 5 1/4" square and 2 7/8" smaller squares to do the no waste flying geese method.......and the flying geese completed are ohly 4" long. HELP! :-)
