I don't think my last post came through, so I'll try again. I want to make an I Spy quilt using the snowball pattern. The fussy cut blocks I have are 5". What size should the corner squares be? Thanks!

I would try a couple of blocks with 1.5 and 1.75" squares in the corners and see which one you like the best. I like 2" squares for 6" blocks, so a little smaller would probably give you the "roundest" illusion. :)
