Default Are instructions wrong??

As I had previous posted, I am working on a quilt pattern called Blueberry Cobbler from the F&P Mar 2004. My question is, they call for a 9.25" cut square and 5.25" square cut from the two fabric to make the quarter triangles. I made a mistake and cut 5.5" squares and the smaller 4.5" unfinished quarter triangle came out perfect but the larger one came out 1/4" short of what was to be an 8.5" unfinished square. I know that when making HSTs, you add 7/8". Did they print the wrong size to cut??

I can use the shorter ones and take the seam out and use them as the setting triangles. I am naming this quilt Wild Cobbler. Here is my progress so far:
