    I plan on doing 3 sets of 8 (6 to send and 2 to keep)
    3", 9" & 12" (plus the 1/2" seam allowance of course)
    haven't decided if they will be square or rectangle or a mix

    I've almost got 3 sets of 6 done of the KFC... need to outline the chicken in the bucket on 4 more and they will be finished up (ran out of bobbin so said heck with it last night). They are closer to an even 10" I had to add a border and thought it would be better to let people decide if they wanted border all around or trim it off one side...up to them.

    I'm a Libra...I weigh the options too many different ways I think until I rattle myself into indecision. (are ya buyin' that?)

    I have some cool chicken fabric that is striped with eggs between the chickens. If I cut it into 10" blocks is that acceptable? I want to give people the option of how they want to cut it up as filler strips. I didn't want to be "cheating" by not doing anything to it but really think it would be a great filler ... you can cut it vertically or into squares or horizontal strips...too many choices for me to make on their behalf. What's the ruling on this?

    moonwork, yes you can just send squares of fabric, but we would use them as fillers. The fabric does sound cute!
