Plus, 40 is much easier to work with than 42 or 44. LOL I stand a chance with a number ending with zero. I ended up getting 5 yards of each of the brown fabrics and two of the green at JoAnn's today, just to make sure I had enough. I want to spend the weekend cutting all the fabric squares so that when the charm packs arrive, I'll be ready to start sewing immediately. I am in LOVE with the fabrics I bought!
