Mine are done also. For the 1/2 sq. triangles, I cut mine at 4 7/8", each square cut in half, for the 1/4 triangles I cut a square at 5 1/4" and then corner to corner each direction to make 4. They came out accurate[ATTACH=CONFIG]550058[/ATTACH]

Florence and Jaba, love your fabrics.
Ok, so I am a bad girl. I went back and found the notes I was making as I was designing the quilt, and low and behold, I cut my A blocks at 5-1/4" so probably did the same on the B and E. So sorry, everyone, after writing the instructions, I kept going over them to make sure they read correctly, but never questioned my measurements, when I should have gone back and checked those, too.

We can go party now that we're done.... just made some Cowboy Caviar and will bring some scoop chips so we can get lots! For a sweet touch I'll bring some Mascarpone Stuffed Dates.....

Does this mean anything that says 5" on clue 3, we need to cut 5.25"? And does this impact anything on clue 2?

I got caught up and jumped on board. I cut my clue 3 squares a bit bigger, based on some of the comments. I started with squares 5.25" for the blocks cut both ways. They came out with just a smidge to trim off.
After that my train made a stop at a nice park so I could walk around the lake and see the baby ducks and geese.

Ummmm Judy......
Here are my 2 different blocks . I cut mine today for clue 3 at 5 1/2" on all of it. Worked fine. Just trimmed it down. No biggie. Some of my spools are going each direction. (and I don't even care) lol. I'm such a "free spirit"in my old age.
