So I am starting a quilt for kids, but either my math is wrong or it is just not adding up.
I have a four patch block to make the two color block section should be 3 1/2 by 6 1/2 then you sew those two sections to get your four patch block that should be 6 1/2 by 6 1/2 but 3 1/2 plus 3 1/2 is 7 right??? Even if you take the 1/4 inch seem in the middle that only is 6.75! I am sooo confused! I have went over it like 3 times now please help me understand!

This is a problem that we all have from time to time :wink: Especially in larger blocks with 30 or 40 pieces LOL It can be mind boggling trying to remember all of these things :D:D:D
