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.

I believe someone mentioned an error that was later corrected? Maybe someone who has done the quilt will know.

Wish I could help, but can't; way too complicated for me. Beautiful pattern though. Hopefully there will be someone to come along and help you out.

The version in the magazine had several errors that were corrected in later patterns that are available for sale. Which version of the pattern do you have?

JAK

I have the corrected pattern as I bought long after the problem but it isn't the same problem

JAK

I have the newer corrected version and this is a different problem than that

Maybe you can figure it out comparing mine. ? There seems to be a difference between them....

I have the pattern but haven't made it yet. It looks like each of the grey, dark grey, and black pieces finishes at 3" wide, and the white strips finish at 3/4" wide. I would start by carefully measuring each part of the block that you've assembled to be sure that everything measures as it should. It looks to me like 18.5" would be the correct unfinished size for strip D.

Here is a close up of my two blocks. I think you have mixed up the length of the final piece that goes on the left hand side and the piece with two triangles that goes on the right hand side.

In my pattern it says that D should be 3 1/2 inches by 18 1/2 inches. Is that what your strip measures?

GingerK

Your top strip also looks long, altho the D strip still needs a a 'top of the wall' strip attached. My pattern calls for G--the top strip with the single triangle-- to be 3 1/2 by 19 1/4.

Dunster is right--go back and measure each piece again and compare it to the pattern specifications.
