Pat, I don't understand your problem. Are you saying that the printouts are the right size, but the size you cut the fabric was smaller by 1/4"??? Others seem to be making the units without a problem so we need to figure out what's going on with yours so I can try to help. If I remember correctly (I made mine over a year ago) the later directions did reduce the size of the fabric pieces so there wasn't as much to be trimmed away. I think you are probably going to be OK, but let us know!

Nfiegirl OFFLINE Posts: 78 Thank you received: 17	Margo I was just about to begin sewing my half-square triangles, when I noticed that they were not the same as previous months. There is a difference of 1/4 in. on all sides. The one inch test square was ok. I'm about sick to my stomach.. I sure hope I have enough fabric to cut some more..
