Well, that's how I did it, anyway. Hope this helps.

if you received 2 fat 16ths would you prefer they be the same fabric or 2 different fabrics?
Just curious so I know how to figure it out. I also googled what are the measurements of a fat eighth and they are 11x18 according to this website I found http://quilting.about.com/od/stepbys...t_quarters.htm
Thanks for the info....
