GOOD LUCK! Most of all, have some fun with it!
Good luck!
Yes but it is SMALL line and hard to see on my omni-grid ruler! I do cut the measurement called for but I really like cutting fabric on the BIG lines!!!! Also my favorate ruler does not have 1/8" marks! I still would not recommend cutting bigger since you do not know how this block will fit into the whole quilt pattern.
