I do this as well when I purchase yardage for a quilt. But in these $5 BOM, you pay $5 to start and if you bring you block back completed - you get the next one for free. SO that being said, you get almost exactly what you need to make the block in a little bag. My goal is to try and do this one without spending any more $$ than I have to!!
