Didn't have a tute. These blocks measure 12 1/2" unfinished just like for this swap. Out of the black(side) and the tan(bottom) I cut 2" wide by 12 1/2" strips from each color. Then I cut 2 3/8 X 2 3/8" squares of each, sew together 1/4"seam each side of the middle, cut in half, yield 2. Sew black strip to each side, then sew the black and tan square to the tan strip. careful to match the direction of colors, I had to take it out a time or 2, then sew to bottom of your block. Now I'm sewing the rows together. Plan to add a 1 1/2"inner border and 4 1/2" outer border so it should measure out about 78 X 91. Pretty close to a queen size.
