Roses are good for Valentines. :) Valentines is represented by most shades of red, so your fabric is great. :)

Every PM was received and names added to the list. :)

As long as it's a fat quarter 18 inches X 21 inches, you can cut your own, or purchase pre cut ones.
I know I thought I saw somewhere 18 x 22 so i guess for this I will go with this measurement.

Thanks for clarifying,

I would love to be on the receiving end of those burgundy roses. :lol:
My opinion is that burgundy combined with pink make a lovely Valentine.

MsSage, it depends on the width of the fabric, some fabrics are 42", some are 44". :)

Shadow,
I still need clarification on this...I think my question got lost in the shuffle of definition of "true" fat quarter.
Thanks

Sorry about the side track MJ...I was thinking that if it was a problem...I'd take them for the swap...I'm a girl that has never turned down roses (of any color) for V-day!

And a fat quarter would be 18 x 22 ?

Most fabric is 42/44" wide, a fat quarter is 18 inches by half the width of the fabric. So they are 18" X 21/22". :)

Thanks. Didn't want to short change my Valenitne.

just bumping this before the deadline. I was trying to get fabric ready to mail and had to search for the topic

I would love to join and have sent a PM. Would it be a problem being part of the exchange even though I am in Australia? The only problem I see is placing chocolate in the package - it may have problems going through customs. So dont give me chocolate - if thats okay? And I am sorry but I may not be able to send chocolate, I will check up more on this!!!
