    Can anyone post a pic of kathy n's fabric. I made her block i remember getting it ready to mail but can't remember the fabric. I thought i had taken pics of all the blocks i sent out but must have missed hers. I need to know what her fabric looked like so i can make sure. For some reason i can't remember it.

    Tink I think that it would work if you fuse some stabilizer to the seam, If I were you that is what I would do along with a note that this is what I did and why and if the recipient doesn't like it offer to do another block if she sends you a new F8. Hope this helps. Please don't stress about things like this, this swap is supposed to be fun, and I am sure that we all understand things like this happening!!

    personally , I would do it over... and ask the person if they have anymore fabric they could send you. But that is me. I feel a quilt has to last at least two generations. but that is just me.
