all the center blocks are three inches, the four patch has 3in squares but except the one for charm squares and those are all five inches . basically I don't fuss too much, as long as the diagonal cut pieces are the same it works out. You start with 3 squares all the same, make the starter block, then measure it and that measurement gives you the next size to cut, just keep going remembering you will get over sized blocks so you can trim to a firm quarter inch seam allowance or let the block float. I always trim the block square before measuring.
It is all about the hypotenuse of the square ie:diagonal measure, being about 1.4 times longer than the edge of the square.

I don't do much with solid colors but I am thinking that this technique might make a pretty awesome Amish type quilt. I just might have to go fabric shopping....
