I have had my concerns about the pre-cuts and not being able to wash them before piecing. There is really no way to wash strips or little squares, even with a mesh laundry bag. When I saw the tub of water from the black Moda fabric, I was convinced not to piece any fabric without washing it first. Saving time by buying precuts may not be a time saver in the long run.

I have been skeptical of fabric exchanges too. I have never dealt with one and may never. I will say this though. A sweet lady named Vicky Reeno from North Carolina (can' remember the spelling) mailed me a box full of cloth one year. She did not ask for anything in exchange. Everything she sent me was beautiful. That donation has been my "stash" for just about every project since then. If Vicky is still on the list, maybe someone will give her a (((HUG))) for me.
