It says to pre-wash your fabric on pg. 1. I would either put them in the sink and swish them around or put them in a lingerie bag and throw them in the washer.
I can't wait to see what the final total is!!! So far I've made 107 (not signed) but, I'm going to sit down today and sew up a few more for GP!!! One thing that I did get done is I have sewen all my little triangles together and made 1 1/2" blocks out of them to do something with them at a later time!! This is actually going to be my FIRST SCRAPPIE EVER!!! I'm so excited, yet sooooo nervous.
Does anybody have an idea if we have some from other countries without going back through 34 pages? :-D
