dddd is that all cotton? Most fabric like that is a blend. Please don't get upset with me, but it is much thinner than the regular cotton.

I know that the checks material is not always cotton....I think someone told me that. But I found some red check material that is 100% cotton so I think that it is possible to find it. Just a thought. That ant parade is adorable.

Thanks Red for letting me know you got my squares.
I like the bikini one.....too cute. I can always dream about the days when I did wear one.

I am now down in Australia and having fun looking for Quilt fabric stores. In Melbourne they have a fantastic public transportation system so I can get around the city quite well and then of course walking.......Lots of beautiful trees and greenery and lots of people
enjoying the outdoors. I love it here. I get to cuddle my grandkids too and that is the best. I made them an I Spy quilt and they love it. Whew!

Hello - Was just looking at all the blocks, what great work. I was in the springtime swap earlier and that was great. These look awesome. I am ready to send a set in and am trying to get another one complete in time to send also. So please include me.
p.s. need an address to send to. thanks. Margaret

Yes, it is 100% cotton purchased from a local quilt shop.
It was very difficult to find since most checkered fabrics I've seen are usually poly/cotton blend.
I also did the burn test to confirm that it is cotton.

I know ddddd! It is very hard to find the 100% cotton check fabric. Please don't be mad at me for asking. It is part of hosting that I hate. I love your ants block! It is so perfect for the swap!
