Signups are going well. We've got 17 or 18 names now. Early next week I'll post names and groups so everyone can see what's what. I'm going to be busy this weekend and may not get much of a chance to check in. Don't forget, if anyone has questions, please feel free to post here. I guarantee you if you have a question, somebody else will have the same one.

Two questions
Did you get an email back from Janice when you sent your email?
Would broadcloth fabric be suitable? Here is the description:
FABRIC TYPE & CARE:
This is brand new soft, smooth 100% cotton broadcloth, apparel/quilting weight premium USA designer quilt shop fabric cut to order from the bolt. Perfect for apparel, quilting, table linens, home textiles, and craft projects. Care: Machine Wash Cold. Dry Low. I'm going to order this online so I can't see it first.

I'm thinking of making a big center panel for a Day of the Dead quilt.

mjp, the fabric will be used to make your quilt blocks, they are 100% cotton which is the only requirement.
I don't have a lot of experience w/ broadcloth b/c I have only seen it in solids, but if memory serves it is a little lighter weight then some of the higher end quilters cotton.
Day of the dead, now that will be some out of the box thinking! lol

MJP, That fabric is awesome what fun. Being nosy I looked up other fabrics by Alexander Henry and not a single other listing was described as broadcloth. I wonder if it's an error by the etsy seller? either way it's fun and say's 100% cotton.
