Not all WOF fabrics are 44 inches or longer. Some are as narrow as 40 inches and many are in the 42-43 inch range.
I would be more willing to play if the guideline is 9 inches long by 1/2 width of fabric (which can be as narrow as 20 inches and as wide 22.5 inches - for the majority of quilting type of fabrics)

**Most of us that swapped last month were splitting a fat quarter in half to produce 2 fat eighths from it. It worked out well.**

Also - you did not state as to whether these fabrics should be washed or unwashed.
Or should the sender just label the piece as to whether it is washed or not and the recipient can deal with it???

**As said, most were using fat quarters for the swap, so most were unwashed because if we had prewashed, we had shrinkage.
It's up to the sender if they want to wash or not. Just attach a note to the fabric.**


Hope this answers your questions.
