[quote=msawicki64]I am making my first fence rail quilt. I cut my strips 2 1/2 inches,sewed them at 1/4 inch and when you lay them side by side you can see they are the same size which is 8x8 but when you turn the second block to start making the fence rail the size doesn't match. What am I doing wrong? When I watch tuts on this the I do according to the instructions. Please help. Thanks[/quote
You did not have all your strips 21/2 inch wide. To use the fabric you have already cut square up each of the block units to match then it should work out all right.
