I think I'm making the fabric selection harder than it really is. In the pic with the directions there are 7 0r 8 different colored fabrics. How much yardage did you get for each one ?

How much yardage did you get of each one ? I'm having trouble deciding on how much fabric to buy .

I also received today in the mail EQ7 so I will be having so much to learn! :)

Kim, I sent you a pm with some ideas, buy the most yardage of something you really love in the red,,,, gold & green Colors. Say maybe a yard.

Then pick a couple of other shades that support the main fabric goinng a. Shade lighhter, & darker

Example, choose buy 1 yd of a true red, then 1/2 yd of burgundy, 1/2 yd of a pinnk/rose, % 1/2 yd of a orange. Total 2-1/2 yds.

You can break it down. Even further & get fat quarters of the supporting colors.

I have given the yardage sufficient for fudge factor.

Hi Kim - Try Connecting Threads..that's where I got mine, and the prices are really great...many about $4.96 a yard.

Bonni, so glad you are feeling better.
