So any guess on how much fabric is needed to make the blocks ? if say I go with 3 colors ? Still on the fence just wondering how much fabric is needed :)

Finished the 4 Double T's tonight and a sample of the spool block from the leftovers. Will probably wait on the S of VA until later as I have company coming and have to get ready.

sharon b, think the 4 blocks of shoofly should take about 20" of main color and 10" second color. Anybody correct me if I am wrong. I know DT's took more than I thought they would--haven't figured that out though.

Here are some of what I have for Civil War Fabrics have others but do not think it is a big enough piece. Have to choose so I can get them washed up as I do not normally pre wash. (I have a Civil War BOM I started 2 years ago did not get to far). Collecting but never used them now is my chance :)

Christine, Love all your fabrics!

Frustrated, you have beautiful fabrics!! I love the blues in the top row! And that bottom right corner brown one-yummy.

OK- I love your T's and that spool is perfect! Great ideas, as always!

Oksewglad, your blocks are terrific! Love the little spool block...I may have to copy you. :)

Frustrated, your fabrics are looking good!
