Tahoe 9 Patch Blocks

Last night I was experimenting with the Tahoe blocks using 4 patches.  This set off a light bulb in my head.  I have been in a 9 patch bock swap but not all blocks measure correctly.  Some blocks are either 6" or 6.25" on one side with the other side normally the 6.5" the blocks are supposed to be so I decided to cut them to 5.5" on one side and make blocks using them.  After I made the blocks I thought I probably shouldn't have cut them down but cut the other piece down a little.
