with the other three steps, why aren't they coming out "perfect" after the sewing?
actually, if the idea of oversizing and then trimming down appeals to you, going for an additional 1/8" makes the measuring a lot easier. cut an extra 8/8th's, so to speak ( 1") and trim the excess away. it's much easier to measure 1" than 7/8".
