I am doing a pattern the uses 2 sizes of square in a square in a square. The larger ones are perfect! But the ones that are 4 1/2 are not even close.
I am looking for a paperpieced one the is 4 1/2 inches when done. I have found a few 6 1/2 inch ones. How do I resize them? I am wondering if the cutting instructions in my pattern are correct for the smaller ones. So I am going to do a few pp with the cut pieces to see if it is me, or the pattern.
Below is a a pic of the S in S I am trying to do. It is a 6 1/2 inch one.
Thanks for the help!

I tried the resizing, but it was wasting too much to get perfect.
THANKS EVERYONE FOR THE HELP! :)
