It's called a bag lady swap and you take a ziploc freezer bag and fill it full of fabric and swap bags with a partner and then you make a top and send it back.

Looks like you are doing great. I make lap robes of 5 inch squares almost daily. They are donated to veterans. I really identify with you.

I also make other types pieced quilts.

Congratulations on becoming a quilter.

Using 5 inch squares for Transformer for my grandson for Christmas.

Everyone has to start somewhere. Just jump in and go for it. With each project you will see your skills improve.
