Yup! what cowpie2 said. I love this idea. Quick question for anyone.... Is "crayon" a term for a fat 1/8 rolled up or did you literally pick a wax crayon out of a tin? I had never heard of fabric referred to as a crayon so wasn't sure.
We actually picked a wax crayon out of a tin, scribbled it on an index card, and knew to try to match it with fabric as best we could before the next class. Fabric could be from stash if we had it. Otherwise, we would need 1/8 yard, but most of us just bought a fat quarter to have extra. Good reason for the LQS to keep on generating sales, right?
I'll look up the yardage requirements and send PM's to those who have inquired.
