I don't *think* any of mine are flannelette... but I didn't know there was such a thing.

However, they're all already cut and ready to go to the post office tomorrow... if they are flannelette, do I need to start over?

I want in on this!!! But just to be clear...I spy simply means printed (usually children's) fabric-not solids, right? These don;t have to be fussy cut, right?
Thanks...never done an I-spy sp I just don't want to send he wrong thing!

I know when I look for I Spy fabric, I try to make sure the designs are close together, especially for 5" squares so you don't get a bunch of 'partial' figures if I don't want to fussy cut. If they are too far apart, it can end up with alot of solid showing even with a print. Good luck. I know I joined this so I could check out the flannel section of the store since I have no stash of flannel. Yeah, a chance to buy fabric!!!!!

Lol, I think I just learned this kinda teh hard way (although I think I should have known better!) I just cut 40 squares for my third fabric, and don't like them at all! Perhaps they will make a cute charity quilt though

My fabric is headed to the dryer and then on to the ironing and cutting. I want mine finished so when yours arrive I will have plenty of time for sorting.

We have 22 players right now!
