I'm sure it will pass, but right now I'm kind of wondering why I'm doing this to myself. I always feel pressured to get everything finished before the next clue even though it's truly not necessary.
The problem with going with a scant 1/4 seam when joining the 2 blocks together is that you would have to remember to do a same scant seam when you join this 4.5 inch by 4.5 inch block to whatever it will be connected to because otherwise you points will be cut off at the tops and bottoms (the way it is shown in the photo).
