Here's the good news. I just finished making my blocks for my king size quilt top yesterday. I made 35 star blocks & 35 log cabin blocks. The star blocks were done several years ago & I finished up the logs yesterday. Now for the bad news. When I went to measure all my blocks, all of my star blocks are measuring out at about 12 1/4" instead of 12 1/2". My log blocks are all o.k. with unfinished sizes of 12 1/2" (that's what all the blocks should be.). Now I'm really bummed because I will have to square up my star blocks to 12 1/4" & lose most of my points. Plus, because I don't have a 12 1/4" square ruler it's going to take a lot longer when I go to cutting all 70 blocks down to 12 1/4".
I made all those star blocks way before I realized the importance of measuring them after each one I made. Man I must have been out of my mind when I made them! Here's a pic of how they are going to be put together in the quilt. At least I don't have to match log blocks.
What would you do in a case like this?
