okay, 3 yds of fabric cut into 8ths should give a person 24 pieces. Another yard should give you another 8. by my count that should be 32 f8's to send. so would need 3 more from another fabric---no problem! Got my envelopes all hand addressed ( I am not computer savvy) and packaged the f8s in plastic sandwich bags with my little note card with a address label attached so it is handy if anything happens. so why are all f8s gone and 9 envelopes are still empty? start counting and find that there is 37 names on the list. so back to the stash to find some more fabric to fill those 9 envelopes plus one side swap. Fabric chosen is only enough for 8 pieces so again to fabric stash to find enough for 2 more people. So now all envelopes ( including side swap) are signed,sealed and ready for post office tomorrow. Four different fabrics will make quite a few quilt tops. Hope everyone will "be creative and Have Fun" like i wrote on my little note.
