I laid out my fabric and cut it exactly like it showed with the 18" side facing my stomach. My fat quartered measured 18x21 as stated in her diagram. I have the 2- 21" long pieces so I know I cut it in the correct direction. But after cutting the two 8.5" pieces, all that is left at the ends are 4". (which would equal 21")
I had exactly 7 strips to work with as shown in the diagram. The only thing that doesn't fit is that it shows I should get 4 1/2" off the ends of the two strips of 8.5, but I don't. I only had 4" left.
