all you need to do is cut 10 1.5 inch blocks from one piece of fabric...then another 10 of another piece of fabric...then...take ***1 of each*** stack of 10 and put it in a baggie...continue doing this till all the stacks have been depleted and all the baggies have 50 blocks in each one.
As I cut I set up my piles/sets the last time. That way I don't have to handle the small charms again.
(You can easily get 26 1 1/2" charms from 1 40" strip so I'm aiming for the maximum set allowance of 20 sets.)
As I cut I place one charm on each pile. I'll pull my fabric yardage or strips in groups of 10 or 25 and leave them out so I don't use them again.
It really didn't take long to do the piles/sets the first/last time I participated. I'm glad the number of piles/sets has increased this round! Thank you!
