Question about "Warm Wishes" quilt
I am working on cutting fabric for a "Warm Wishes" quilt and have a question The focus blocks are 6" and the instructions say to cut two strips 2" and one strip 3" and then join these. Now the resulting strip set would measure 6.5" correct? How does this work with the 6" focus blocks? Is there an error in the instructions I have or has this cold I have made my brain foggy? I cut the blocks already so I would have to adjust the strips. Thanks for any help.

Or of course you might sew like me..... I cut my strips according to the pattern & stitch them together, then measure the resulting square... even though I try very hard to do a scant ¼" seam, I usually end up with at 5 7/8" unit, so cut my focus square at that or whatever the strip unit measured. It helps to keep the quilt nice & flat without having to stretch a few seams.
