Tuesday Tips - Urban Candy
Squaring up Urban Candy blocks
First, line up seams of block (both top and bottom of block), as close as possible, under the reference marks indicated in the pattern. 1 3/4 and 4 1/4 inch marks on ruler.
Occasionally it may be difficult to square up an Urban Candy block to the 6 1/4 x 9 1/2 as the pattern indicates.
This is not a problem. Simply square up block to 6 1/4 x 9 1/4 or 6 1/4 x 9. Make sure all blocks are squared up to the same measurements.
The only difference will be is that the finished quilt is a little shorter.

What have I done wrong? Help!
