[QUOTE=krafty14;6162811]Hi there. This is the exact measurements you need. But they are a little interesting to cut the sizes.
You would need 2 7/16" squares (4 squares, 2 of each color) sew together to make a 4 3/8" four patch block.
Sew the blocks together you will have 4 3/8" x 8 1/4" block. If you sew 4 4 patch units together you will have a 8 1/4" block.
Or you could sew 2 1/2" blocks together and trim to 4 7/8".
Pinwheels are another story.
) Place 2 different 2 13/16" squares right sides together. Draw a diagonal line from corner to corner. Sew 1/4" on either side of this line. cut apart. Do this twice and you will have the 4 squares for a pinwheel. Sew together to make a 4 3/8" pinwheel. Or you could use 2 7/8" squares and again you will trim the finished pinwheel to 4 7/8". These are interesting measurements, but it shoul
Wow! How do you know this?? That's amazing. I will do it up in muslin so I can be sure i'm understanding your directions correctly. Would it be simpler to make it 8 1/2"? not sure if that would matter or not. Does this use the rule about adding 7/8" or something like that? Thanks so much. I'm hoping others will have input also as there are so many great quilting brains on here that it would be fun to see if others use the same methods. Thank you!
