So it's 3 x 3 for the units and you want 12" block.
If that;s the finished size ... after sewn in to the quilt ... then 12 divided by 3 equals 4.
Each square would be 4"x4" plus seam allowances .... meaning 4-1/2"x4-1/2"
Use the photo as your guide as to what fabrics you would use in each position.
