quilting nonie, that block is beautiful

Judy, Yes, the blocks should be 12.5" when you send them in. Check your see allowance and try a scant 1/4", and have you pressed it? Sometimes they grow a little.

I like it. It's very bright and pretty.

Now, can someone answer a question for me. This is my first swap and I want to make sure my blocks are right. I plan on making the Balkan Puzzle block from Quilter's Cache. The instructions say that the pattern makes a 12" block. Is that 12" finished or 12" unfinished? I made one block and it ended up 12". But I think we are supposed to have a 12-1/2" block to send for the swap. Is this right? Any advice would be appreciated as I want to make my blocks correct.
