Default Hst problem

I just started the quilt Daisy Star (Judy Ladquidara - patchwork times) and have cut out the first two fabrics. I cut 4" squares, as instructed, so that I could make HST. While reading over the instructions, I saw that the 4" squares were to be used to make HST that were to be trimmed to 3 1/2". I did some quick double checking and realized that 4" squares were not large enough. Now I need some advice. I do not have enough fabric to cut more squares and besides that, I hate to waste fabric, so should I use a slightly smaller than 1/4" seam or sew a 1/4 " seam and adjust everything else accordingly? I really need help! Thanks in advance.
