Looking for dimensions to make a 10 inch Four Patch quilt?

I wish to 10.5 (10 "finished) quilt with blocks of four design Patch block. The block that I want to do is Colorado Beauty: http://www.blockcentral.com/block-coloradobeauty.shtml calling for all 1 / 2 square triangles. What I know How big is I cut my squares? Thank you!

Cut your squares 3 3 / 8 ". The 12" model that showed 3-inch squares (4 times 3 = 12 ") with 4 / 8" (1 / 2 ") added to reflect the provision of regular sewing and 3 / 8" added to the seam diagonal created by cutting and resewing triangles. This meant cutting 3 7 / 8 "square. To make a 10" finished by category 2.5 "square (4 times 2.5 = 10 ") with the same tabs as added. So that means they will cut squares 3 3 / 8". This will take 2 " original size, put a "10 categories instead of a block of 12". I hope this helps.
