I'm sorry thought that might have been confusing. I'm not talking about making the pinwheel block. When taking any block and adding triangles to the sides to make it a larger square. How do I measure the triangles on the outside of the block. Confusing again? Sorry. :roll:

Try this site for a good explanation.

See if that helps. If I am wrong again sorry just post again and we will figure it out.
Maybe if you told us the size you have and the size you want that would help.
:-D

Thank You I think this is what I need. I will keep this for future reference. I decided to do my quilt another way. Thanks again.

I am excited I have all my blocks finished. I stayed up late last night because I couldn't quilt. I wanted to get the first 2 blocks quilted, QAYG. I love it but am having so much trouble with the thread raveling on the fmq. Hopefully, I will have it finished by next week. Deadlines aren't for me to keep, it seems lately. :roll:
