Sometimes the blocks are not the right size?? I seen the rail cars done in a quilt show and even won a ribbon.

I've had to remeasure just about every piece I've cut for that.
I'm making it for my son who is an engineer for the BNSF and on the front of the engine, I put the old Santa Fe emblem on it.
