This is a close up of what I was talking about before when I said you can see a little bit of the arc from this side...I will get it in time.

Ok here is my new problem...
I started with an 18 inch square and from that used my arc to make a circle that was 17.5 inch circle. On the back I drew my 12 inch square. Now on the video she puts a piece of batting inside the 12 inch square (which I believe she said was 11.5 inches) I've not got to that part yet. Then she takes her top piece which she says is 12.5 inches and puts over that...On the video it is a perfect fit to the circle (her corners of the 12.5 inch top fit perfecty on the circle)....My 12 inch square don't even fit no more.
I think this is where your problem is. Are those lines that can be seen on the back, originally drawn a 12" square? If so, it looks to me like your seam allowance my be bigger than 1/4" - you've sewn too much into the seam, and what's left isn't full size any more.
