I have the same "quilt/block" size issue when I try to put something on point in EQ as well.  AND when I do a check on blocks in the quilt by doing a preview of them, they are always bigger than my original size.  

The larger size is due to the EQ measuring from Point to Point, instead of side to side, therefore the Quilt size will show larger.   My Blocks are actually 12.5 unfinished.

Just make a few and layout them out and keep measuring until you get the Size of quilt you really want. 

I think I'll ask my EQ instructor and see what the response is and will share with you.

The final step for this quilt was gifting it to the couple this afternoon. We took a huge detour thru the mountains to see some Fall color. Got this parting shot of the double wedding ring quilt. They both loved it.

That is beautiful. Love the color you use.

beautiful quilt Ami.  Did you take some close ups of the quilting?

Thank you. It is one of the few quilts that I bought all the fabric to make it. It took a few months and multiple stores to find just the right mix of colors.

Yes I did take closeups.

nice.  I especially like how the bead board goes through the narrow blue inner border.

It's a beautiful quilt.  Glad you were able to gift it in person, experiencing the true reaction of those receiving it.

Thanj you. I had a hard time trying to figure out a nice border and am happy with my choices. The breadboard always works with any kind of garland shape.
