Cindy, The scrappy 4 patch started with 5 inch charm squares. I layered the 4 patches with a 9 1/2 inch yellow square and drew a line from corner to corner diagonally . I sewed 1/4 inch from the line on each side then cut the line. This made 2 blocks without having any diagonal stretching. I don't remember exactly the finished block size, somewhere around 8 inches.
