OK Ladies, How many WOF strips do I need for the color 100 blocks for the new swap when it gets started? every time I try to figure it out the #'s are different ? I have the 10 centers with the white done for the 10 sets..I just can't wrap my brain around the numbers this morning!

40 strips that are at least 25". You'll need to get 10 candies from each print.
You'll need 4 more prints for the 9patches, if you've already done the center row that consists of 1 print and 2 whites. The 9patch is going to be 5 prints and 4 whites, as I understand it.
...I'm not good in math, I dunno. Just guessing. lol

Givio thanks for these calculations.
Can you believe I have no swaps I need to work on, so I got an early start on this one. I have a stack of strips ready to cut and tons of orphan candy.
I'm out of white decided I'm just getting a couple of yards today, I have two 50% off coupons from the back of last months receipts need to use before they expire.

Irene, I'm still working on my last swap 9patch blocks-- I was going to sandwich and start quilting my top this weekend, but I procrastinated... I'm not going to start the new swap blocks for a while yet, because I'm still hopeful to get going on the previous top. I've got some white someplace, I just need to locate it amongst my stash. Your 50% off coupons sound about right to use! :-)

Givio I decided to wait on working with last 9 patch swap blocks. I want to wait and see how many sets I end up with this time, I might have to combined them and make one huge quilt or two small quilts.
Going to try and get a good head start on the new blocks this week, I will be in San Antonio for the week of July 4th.
When I get back I really want to start my layout for the last 9 patch blocks. I want it to be "happy", I'll be using my favorite shades of purples and some applique. I hope it turns out how I designed it .....in my head.
It's so nice to be posting on here, at least while I'm home, heck I might even post a couple of photos this week
