Great question, Marlenab. Kass correctly explained the use of multiple fabrics. You can send anything you'd like as long as at least one piece is a full F8. And for newbies, that's a Fat eighth, approx 11x18, Not an eighth which is 9x22. It wouldn't seem like it makes much of a difference, but it does and we use Fat 8ths almost exclusively.

Also, reminder, we generally keep the remnants of the F8s we receive after we use it to make a block for you.

And as far as getting your package of F8s with which to make blocks earlier, yes, if your entire group has sent me their F8s, I will sort them and ship early. With 20 people, that might be a stretch, but it can happen. Same with completed blocks. If all of your group gets their completed blocks in early, I will ship them back to you early.

Hope that helps.

If everyone gets their fabric sent before the deadline, do we get if back sooner? Too anxious here! Haven't done a swap in years due to lack of time (single mom of 3). Last child moved out last fall so I'm ready to have some fun.
