Advice on 12.5 in Blocks
Hi Ladies,
I've got two current projects that ask for 12.5 inch Finished blocks, but the 80% of the blocks I have patterns for are all 12 inch Finished. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can find the 12.5 in Finished blocks? Or is there a way that I can use the 12 inch blocks but adjust the size of the blocks? I figured if anyone would know it would be the group on here, thanks!

Are you sure that size is 12.5 finished? Usually it's 12 inches finished. I am part of the swap on the QB and it's 12.5 unfinished. If not, I suggest adding boarders to your block to bring it up to size or just adding the appropriate measurement to get the size you want. Hth, gina

There are several blocks that DO finish at 12.5" in two books I have by Judy Hopkins - Around the Block and Around the Block Again. It is very possible.
A 25-unit grid (five units across by five down) will not always finish off with a whole number. Shown below is my latest project with blocks that are unfinished at 13" but finished at 12.5".
