I have not made one of these blocks yet because I was not sure of the cutting measurements but I have a sampler quilt that I think this block would go well in.
Thanks for the help,

Ohhh I love the chart Peckish shared thank you......it looks to me like if you use 4" blocks to start with your block will be 10" that you can trim to 9.5 since you are only making 1 for a sampler quilt and the nature of the block it will still work beautifully.
