Thanks so much for your help. I now know I can make a 15" block and get 13". With 3 blocks across, I'll have a 39" finish with 3 blocks. If I want it a little larger, I can add a border, plus I can use my accuquilt cutter.

I'm going to try it to make sure it works, though.

Again, thanks so much.

You are welcome. I had to try it myself to make sure it actually would work.

I was wondering why you said you could not use your Accuquilt cutter earlier in this thread.
