Default Is the pattern wrong??

I am trying to make a pineapple block quilt as you go placemat that I found in The Pineapple Passion book by Nancy Smith and Lynda Milligan. I don't think I can post any of the pics or directions because of copyrights. The backing and batting are cut 16" by 20". You mark a X on the batting to center you first square which the directions say should be 3 1/2". You match the corners of your square to the lines that you drew on the batting. This should center your block.

I think the center block needs to be 2 1/2 inches in order to center it on the corners of the X lines to center the block. I had a challenged quilting week last week that is spilling over to the new week!
Please help!!
