marytoddliz - I don't mind using a blend, I use them in my own personal quilts, but I won't use them for other peoples.

Maybe if you have a backup plan, and when you get your group assignment PM everyone and ask what they'd think. I would write it down that they're a blend though

i would think since it is going to be in your own quilt it should not matter
if you were trading blocks with someone probably not. i know i only use 100% cotton in my quilts but if this is going to be yours to keep should not matter only my opinion

Put in the search bar- fat quarters
Then there will be a 'surprise' bag on the next page

So did I! I have been looking for some fabric from Cedar Chest line, they had them and on sale for $5 a yard! So thanks so much for the link!

I realized I have enough of the 100% cotton to send out, I will use the blends for borders. I also discovered why they are a pain... When I washed all my fabric the blends really clung to the strings in the washer! I usually don't pre wash, that must be why LOL

thanks for the link i ordered 3 bags also

martoddliz--Definitely think one should check with the group to make sure the other quilters don't mind blends. Personally I only use 100% cotton, except when using Minkie, which is 100% polyester, which isn't that often.

I prefer 100% cotton also

i prefer 100% cotton too but i do work with 100% silk often.
