So I am starting a quilt for kids, but either my math is wrong or it is just not adding up.

I have a four patch block to make the two color block section should be 3 1/2 by 6 1/2 then you sew those two sections to get your four patch block that should be 6 1/2 by 6 1/2 but 3 1/2 plus 3 1/2 is 7 right??? Even if you take the 1/4 inch seem in the middle that only is 6.75! I am sooo confused! I have went over it like 3 times now please help me understand!
