That is not necessary - optional if you want to. But Ii can make the 14 work.

I put an advertisement for this swap in the Secret Pal swap. Hopefully we can get a few more.

I searched what I have available and found that I can do 8 bags. I'm not sure if any of the prints have been swapped before. Hope that's okay.

I'm not the hostess of this swap. However, I think you can end up with duplicates no matter whether you've swapped them before. Generally speaking, I buy at least a yard of any I spy fabric as that is the minimum cut at lots of places, both online and at warehouse type places. (It also takes a yard to participate in an ABC swap.) So, I swap the same fabric again all the time. (See reply #11 on this thread.)

I think you are more likely to get duplicates because several different swappers recently bought their fabrics from JoAnns and Hobby Lobby than older fabrics that have been swapped before.

JMHO, Rena may have a different take on it.

Pinkfllowers - sure that would work.
We have some new participants and some who welcome duplicates, so send them if you want to.

As Bkay said, many places have 1 yd min in purchases, so they need to be used.

Okay, that's good. I don't mind duplicates. In fact, when I cut out my own I spy squares, I pair them up for matching game quilts or placemats. Hey, would that be an idea for a swap? Instead of 10 unique squares per baggie, maybe 5 sets of doubles?
