    Month 1 Cutting Fabric E

    Barbara, in your Month 1 blog in the "Letter E" paragraph, you said: I cut 1 strip 4 1/2." The instructions for letter E are to cut 2-1/4" by WOF and then subcut into 2-1/4" squares. Did you mean to say "Letter C" instead of "Letter E"?

    No, I cut FOUR 2.25” squares from ONE 4.5” square. The blog shows how I draw the diagonal lines before cutting it into four small squares. I also showed this on the LIVE today, watch it any time.
