Is it ok to ask on the facebook page?
Just use what you need to use to get the right number.....most likely the color will be used again in another step and you want to have some uncut for that step as it might be a different size. I usually try to mix up my reds...etc. but you get to decide! If I remember right, Bonnie usually says...that is all for the red....when she is done with that color...but I can't remember if that is always true....Have fun....for the first time....I am using just yardage as I had enough at hand and I am using my stash...already though I am tempted to throw in some variety! I love scrappy quilts....
