WOW 91 swappers!! this is great!!
I just realized that we have several very talented fabric designers in my area upstate/central NY. So I decided that is what I am going to buy for this! They design for the "big" manufacturers and live here! Isnt that cool???
the really funny part is that I found one of them when I was on Ebay looking at a pin cushion pattern from Australia! I googled company and it is here in NY and the designer of the pattern also designs a couple of my favorite fabric lines!!

If you are cutting your own Fat Quarter, I was always told to remove the selvedges and they should be 18" X 22" depending on the width of your fabric.

I started off with 4 FQs and have found a few more along the way.
Have fun shopping!
