You will wind up with more of your supplemental stash fabric in the quilt than charm fabric, not that it's a problem, but you should be aware of that because it might influence the type of pattern and/or the choice of stash fabric.

So, how many fat 8ths are in a pack? I looked on several sites and the amount seemed to vary.

There are 40 pieces in this fat eighth bundle. I'm impressed with your math! I didn't even think to do that! Boy do I have a lot to learn!!! :/
