I will send 3 sets of 40 squares, each set 40 of the same 4" fabrics. Will PM you.

5 inch squares

I recommend at least 7/8 yard - to allow for shrinkage and possible skewing of the fabrics when they dry.

Also, allow more if the design should be fussy cut

When all the squares are in (or whenever she wants to), the hostess will make 40 stacks. Each stack will get one each of the 120 fabrics that are sent in.

You are so right! I don't know where I got 4" instead of 5".
And I checked my graph, you get 40 5" squares from 3/4th yard of fabric. I also would allow more especially if you are fussy cutting.
