    Twin size is around 70x90 so, for a finished 5.5" block you need 221 six inch squares.

    Queen size is around 90x108 so, again for finished 5.5 blocks you need 340 six inch blocks.

    I hope that's right, LOL!

    6 inch finished? Or cut 6 inches and finished at 5 1/2 inches? Makes a difference.
