    I actually emailed Anita and asked her the same questions - she is so nice!

    So, yes, go ahead and follow her instructions - they are correct. Good luck and please post a picture when you finish. (Mine isn't done yet.)

    Arrowhead blocks do "grow", and you will have a bigger block than you started with by about 1-1/2" no matter what size you start with :-) Amazing.....

    Fear not! I followed those instructions and it works! I finished with a 9" square. I cannot wait to make more for a table runner.
