Well ladies first of all thank you so much for your feedback. I have finally found the problem. At some point I must have inadvertently hit my needle position button. It was positioned to the left. I always so to the right edge of my presser foot and that gives me my 1/4" seam. It was only a slight variance (1/8") but after you have joined that many squares it adds up of course. It wasn't even visible to me when I looked at it but once I started measuring my finished squares I noticed the mistake. So, I have taken all 5 squares completely apart and started all over again. I don't need to tell any of you quilters how frustrated I was trying to figure this out. Thank you again and happy quilting everyone.

I just finished cutting out all the fabric for this quilt yesterday! I’m happy to see any posts about this pattern before I begin, since I try to stay out of the “unsewing” club. Been there way too many times, so I feel your pain.

I would put money on the fact that the instructions were incorrect. Once you move the top strip over a bit to the right, you will discover that both the top strip and the strip on the right side are both too long. I would probably try to remove the black triangle and reposition it down a bit. I would very definitely contact the pattern company and request any corrections and perhaps even a new pattern sheet. Please let us know how you work this out.

There is a pattern correction. She has it on her website. I can't remember the address but it is printed on the pattern
So I have gone exactly step-by-step for this square and I have run into an issue and maybe it is because I have tried to analyze it for so long but I can't find my mistake. I am doing the Wall of Jericho square. Everything has gone perfect until these very last 2 pieces. Strip "D" on the very right side is too long to fit where it is supposed to be attached. I don't know what I have done wrong and am wondering if anyone else that has already made this pattern is able to see something I am not. This is the 18 1/2 inch strip and it cut according to the directions.
I am hoping I have attached my picture properly for you to see.
