***Please note there was a slight cutting error in the fabric A & B requirements. The pieces should be cut at 3"x5.5" instead of 3.5"x5.5". If you've cut your pieces already, those blocks will be too big. Please trim before sewing or ff you've already assembled the A/B squares, trim .5" off the A side and .5" of the B side. Your square should measure 5.5" before you attach it the other pieces. The change has been made on the graphic below and on the printable instructions. We've highlighted the number so it's easier to spot. If you have any questions please email us at anwlundgren@gmail.com or mistletoequiltingco@gmail.com.
