    ps - colors look funky, but they are Chocolate with black print, Tan with raspberry print, raspberry basket weave and mixed floral tan, raspberry, cream and I think magenta
    Very pretty, I just used the same flower fabric in a block swap.

    Hi All: Where did you all FIND a 12 1/2 inch FINISHED block pattern? I was going to do Annie's Choice block which was listed as a 12 inch block but when I made a block it finished at 11 3/4ths. I then made another block but added an extra scant 8th of an inch to the pattern measurements) it turned out about 13 inches. I can't seem to make adjustments to make that perfect 12 1/2 inch block so rather than send blocks that everyone will fight with size-wise I think I'll bow out of this exchange. I'm sorry.

    If you get a 13" block that is better since you can square it up to 12 1/2". At times one needs to play with the 1/4" as well to see if it is sewing it and at times you'll have to use a scant 1/4", in btwn. 1/8th and 1/4th. I hope this helps :)
