ACK ! 120 divided by 4.5 ( allowing for quarter inch seams ) = 26 blocks wide. 124 divided by 4.5 ( allowing for quarter inch seams ) -= 27 blocks deep. ( These are rounded numbers, since 27 blocks wide, is actually 26.66666 and 27.5555 blocks. ) For a total of 702 blocks. If you prefer, make 24 blocks wide and 26 blocks deep, and make up the difference in finished size with your border. 624 blocks.

You need 8 cubic blocks of sides 0.5 inches to make a 1 inch block.
The squares for this quilt will need to be 8 1/2 inches, that includes the 1/4 inch seam allowance for stitching them together. The finished blocks will be 8 inches square.
A standard twin mattress measures 39 inches wide and 76 inches long. If you are making a quilt to fit this mattress, you will want to have at least six additional inches on each side of the quilt to cover the sides of the mattress. Those dimensions would then be 51 inches wide and 88 inches long. As 51 cannot be evenly divided by 4, the width dimension needs to be increased to 52 inches. To achieve a quilt 52 inches wide by 88 inches long, each row will contain 13 four inch squares. You will need to make 22 rows.
110 of them.
It would be equal to the number of blocks in cubic inches.
Volume of 1 inch block is 1 cubic inch Volume of 1/2 inch block is (1/2) x (1/2) x (1/2) = 1/8 cubic inch Therefore number of 1/2 inch blocks in 1 cubic inch block = 1/(1/8) = 8
Yes, it's very common to quilt as you go. That method is best when you don't have room for a large quilting frame, or can't handle the entire quilt.I just make little 10 inch x 10 inch quilt sandwiches (top can be pieced or not), batting, and backing. Then I put the block on a small plastic frame I have and stitch the quilting pattern I have chosen.There are several different ways to join the blocks. I prefer to sew a border on each block, and stuff it as I sew them together. The link I have provided shows a method that requires butting the blocks together, and seems more complicated to me.
That should read half inch
No, it is equal to 5/8 of a inch. 0.25 is equal to a quarter of an inch
I think perhaps 2250 blocks .
