Wow. Silly me when I looked at others block, I realize I had added cornea to wrong sides, no wonder block was too small.... Funny how sometimes things just do not click the first time around. Maybe I will redo...just to prove to myself that I can. Lol

I made this twice and it turned out 11.25" both times, but the second time I did get the center to fit in. ![Thumb Up](https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/thumbup.png)
I'll make a mug rug of the other. I like the colors better in this one for my quilt.

Did I attach my sections wrong? Is that why it was small? I added more background fabric to it so it would be the same size as the last three blocks.

Judy, your block is very pretty, and thanks to you I now know why mine was too small. I did the same thing. I used the same fix as you. I'm still having a hard time visualizing where I should have attached the small square, but I'm happy I won't go nutty trying to figure out how my block could be so much smaller!

Thanks Dede!
Judy, our blocks are not sewn wrong. We just need to remove the extra frame, turn them so the center looks like a diamond and sew the corners on. I un-did my first one to see how I should have attached the sections and just could NOT figure it out, then held it up to one on the screen and realized it was right! So it's laying there in the right order now, ready to re-sew. The bright side is I changed the color of the center so it pops more.
