The blocks are 4.5 x 4.5 finished. The block size is 5 x 5. If you find the book, the blocks are all 4.5 in the book but you need to have a .25 edge. I hope you find them. I don't know how I could complete by blocks without my 5" ruler. It is a life safer. The diagonal lines in the corner are so helpful to make sure the block is made correctly. I have the book and the software and I use the blog "That Quilt" on a daily basis. Her helpful instructions are wonderful. So saying all this, I use the software for the templates and foundation piece patterns but as far as instructions, I like the instructions on the That Quilt website much better. I use the book for fabric selection. I try to duplicate Brenda's selection. I started out with Quilting on the Square but I found several errors on their patterns so I contacted them and they were kind enough to give me a refund. I worked hard on the blocks and I had to redo the blocks due to their patterns errors so I decided I would go it alone but I was thrilled when I see my Quilting Board friends were starting theirs. I have 32 blocks done and I will post pictures later.
