April, I'm just wondering how do you only get 6 F8's from a yard of fabric? If cut right, one should be able to get four FQ's from a yard and a F8 is just half of that so it should net eight F8's per yard. I was thinking of trying this swap out so I too was calculating how much yardage I would need. I came up with no where near 6 yards. I calculated about 4.5 yards.
Do you think you may form a smaller group from this round with the numbers of sign ups? I would be interested in trying a smaller group to start off. I will keep checking the thread.
You are not cutting a true F8. We are sending 11x18. That is why it takes more fabric.
What date is the cut off sign up for the swap? I didn't see that listed.
