Ummm....NO!! If you look at a SQUARE that is 9" on each side. Now add 1/4 inch on EACH SIDE. That makes a 9 1/2" square. You forgot that the square has a top and bottom which are different from the left and right sides.
And when in doubt, get out your graph paper and draw it, then measure it. Sometimes that helps me visualize what the pattern wants.
