Underground Railroad/Jacob's Ladder patch

Post by eymillbrook » Sun Jul 15, 2012 10:59 am

When I make the different blocks for the Jacob's Ladder patch, the two different styles end up different sizes and I'm not sure why. The 4 piece block is a 3 inch square while the triangle pieced square ends up as a 2.5 inch square. What size should the blocks be in order to make a 6" square? Thanks for any help.

I think this is the block you are doing scroll down and it gives the cutting directions. Hope this helps. Bev
