I made a practice block for the wallhanging I am making. It is going to be blocks wide and one block high (long rectangular). My finished block should measure 8.5 inches square. Well, it isn't exact... I think 2 of the sides are 8.5 and the other two sides are 8 1/4 - 8 3/8. Now do a square the whole thing up to be 8 1/4 ?

There is going to be sashing inbetween the blocks. Or should I wait until all three blocks are complete before I do the "squaring"?

I am hand piecing - should I alter my piecing to reduce the error for the finished block? If so... How???

Sorry - so many questions. This is my first project.

THANKS!!
