Please "do the math" for me!
Having trouble doing the math for the attached. The unfinished block is 12 1/2" I wanted to cut my HSTs a bit bigger and trim. My problem (now they're all sewn nicely together) is that the "basket" is too big!! Wondering how big each HST or even the diag column should be. Do you know?? The pattern calls for 4 1/4" sqrs cut into 4 for HSTs. I tried a scrap using 4 1/2" sqrs but when I assemble it all, it's way too wide!! Help!!
From the diagram, can you tell me how big the unfinished HSTs should be? (The "3's" at the top mean 3" divisions for finished block.)
Thank you so much, friends![ATTACH=CONFIG]303104[/ATTACH]
