Maybe that's what you meant (when they didn't work out well)? :evil:

Yikes.. I sure hope everyone follows thru on their word if they decide to join the swap..

Whoever starts, let me know.

I think I want to be part of this swap also.

I'm collecting for an I Spy quilt, I'll swap some duplicate squares with you!! Hugs and smiles, Linda aka wildyard

Well, I will wait till I see the details before making the committment. If I have to come up with 40 seperate fabrics for I spy, I'm not sure I can do that in a short turnaround swap. If any of us end up not being able to do the swap and want to talk about just trading some duplicates, would that be ok?

If the squares will be 5 inch squares - and 40 squares of each fabric

One buys approximately three pieces of fabric - approximately 3/4 to one yard of each - I suggest a minimum of 7/8 yard to allow for shrinkage and the fabric to do it's own thing.

If the design would work out better "fussy cut" - then it requires more.

Fussy cutting is cutting each piece separately - paying attention to how the design is placed in each square.

NO NO NO - not 40 different fabrics. Only 3 fabrics cut into 40 five inch squares each. Phew - I couldn't do 40 fabrics either.

OH WOW, whewwwww, I missed that somewhere in there, lol, well ok, I can do 3 fabrics, LOLOL.

Has anyone thought of themes they would like to do? Id prefer not to do just boy or just girl ones..

Any ideas?
