Question Size for snowball corners?

Making scrappy 6.5" blocks using 2.5 squares. (I use these blocks to make my backs so my quilts are Twofers). Should the squares be 1.75"?
Don't think I'll sash the blocks but the snowballs will be on all four corners.

TY to all the fabric engineers who read this and/or respond.

Your size looks like it would work fine. Those little 1.25 finished corners will really stand out. I'd test the idea with a piece of paper on the corners. It's hard to know what you will really like until you see it.

Played around with scraps of whte and 2" cut strips are perfect. Have 16 snowballed blocks on my design wall and thankfully just the image I was looking for. Now to keep sewing.
