No question is a dumb question. So first off, welcome to the board. Yes, 1/4 inch seam is standard in quilting unless a pattern states otherwise. As far as size, it depends on how big you want your quilt to be, each 4" sq will become 3 1/2 after sewn because of the seam allowance. Have fun quilting!

Welcome to the board!!
A cut 4 inch square will finish to be a 3.5 inch square when you sew your 1/4 inch seams on all 4 sides. The number of squares needed will depend on how large you want your finished piece to be.
10 squares by 10 squares quilt (100 squares total) would make a 35" by 35" quilt.
