That is what I originally thought...in my head I was thinking 20 inches would be way too big, but when that block is cut, it makes it into 4 smaller blocks. I thought I would resew those 4 blocks to get a finished block, but now I understand that I need to sew those into rows and sew the rows together. I think I get now how this is going to work out.
