What is the Difference Between Cut Size and Finished Size?

The cut size is the finished size + seam allowance. For most shapes the seam allowance is 1/4 (.25) inch on each side.

Example: a 2" finished square is cut 2 + .25 + .25 = 2-1/2 inches.

Triangles are a little different. For Half Square Triangles the cut size = finished size + 7/8.
