Quilter's Math - UGH ! ! ! Help Please ! ! !
Hi All . . .
Working from "Patchwork: Comforters, Throws, & Quilts" Published by House of White Birches & edited by Stauffer & Hatch" page 68-71.
Found this wonderful fabric with embossed gold/mettalic flower oblongs that measure 7-5/8" X 8-3/8". Decided to cut them down to 7" squares (I'll get more than enough of the design & refuse to go out of my mind over 1/8" intervals). Now. . . here's the equation:
What would be the setting triangles & the corner HST. . . . these are the book measurements:
Decorative A squares: 10" - mine will be 7"
Setting Triangle B squares: 14-3/4" - What would mine be?
HST corner C squares: 7-5/8 - What would mine be?
What would the B & C squares measurements be? Or is it possible just to subtract 3" from all measurements (since I cut the original 10" to a 7")? Please forgive the simplicity of this question, but I need guidance from all you veterans out there to make my life easier.
My utmost thanks in advance for all the great advice.
