[QUOTE=marand;7575333]I have been trying with no success to cut down my 7 inch blocks to 6 ½ inches. I must be using my ruler incorrectly. The borders are not even but the block is a perfect 6 ½ inches! The borders were even at first. Center block is five inches.Can someone please give me step by step instructions so that all borders are the same width... THANK YOU. I have googled it but I am doing something wrong and cannot put my finger on it.... (I don't want to cut ½ inch off each side because they need to be squared up. some are not quite exactly square...)

Hi there, I just googled " how to square up uneven quilt blocks". and found a few you tube videos that might help you. Sorry I'm out camping and not sure how to post a link on this, but you should be able to find a few. Sometimes watching it will give you the answer, it is hard to explain in words.
