I got an Engineering Degree from Virginia tech in 1978. It has served me well all my life. Numbers are my best friends.

Thank you ladies!! I've printed both of these pages out and will store in a plastic sleeve/binder for future reference. I know they will come in handy.

Math stumps me now in my old age so EQ7 makes resizing even a pattern so simple, once you learn the ropes.

Math has always made my palms sweat....teehee! This is a great explanation and I will use it. Also found some cute freebies on this site. Thanks for sharing.

I usually take the block to EQ7 and resize from there. I can print out the rotary cutting info or template info, my choice. Also gives me how much fabric I'll need for the entire quilt or close to it. I always add at least 1/4 yd for each fabric just in case I miscut.
