Lori,
When I have patterns that turn out small, I just adjust the size of blocks I cut (add 1/4" to all dimensions or whatever seems appropriate). With this particular block, I would just add 1/4" to the outer rows ~ that should make your block perfect!
Sorry you are having trouble! Please keep at it! ;) Your work and color choices are lovely! :thumbup:

Someone here did mention that many of the blocks a the quilter's cache have to be sewn with a smaller seam allowance. That her directions often state that.
I am so sorry this happened to you. I hope you didn't cut them all out before trying the block.
