    You need to go to the very first page of this thread and PM April (the hostess with the mostest for this swap) with all the necessary info she requests, by March 12. She will put you in a group--then follow the instructions in the first post for sending out your fabric for others to make blocks--and others in your group will send you their fabric for you to make them blocks!!

    April, how are the counts coming out? How many groups do we have? And do you need more people to complete a group? My schedule has cleared a little, and I might be able to do another group, if needed.

    My first time with this type of swap, a couple of questions, Do you trim off the edges that have the printing on it, also I cut my 18" strips then discovered the fabric is about 1/2 in short . not the full 44 inshes wide?????

    Yes, you do cut off the edges (selvedges), and usually 1/2" does not bother anyone.

    Last day for signups everyone I am going to work the groups this evening and see where they land but I think the large may just end up as 38 swappers instead of 36. If anyone has a huge issue with this I will put them in two small groups. But again nothing is solid as today is still open for signups
    So glad to see more international swappers joining us as well.
    Hugs
    April
    PS No a 1/2" is not an issue at all. It does happen with the shrinking from washing.
    Thanks Judy for helping with that one and thanks yaya as well
