If she doesn't, I'm desperate to get another set to finish the other one. Greatniece would love to have an I Spy quilt and the first 40 didn't go far enough. My internet was down yesterday so I couldn't get on. Would really appreciate it if it would be possible. Thanks so much.

I had a comparatively hard time finding fabrics with pink in them. (If it was something besides flowers)
Also, when shopping for fabrics, it's helpful to make an "audition template"
Cut out a 4-1/2 inch square in a larger square and then one can see how/if the fabric will cut apart nicely. I've found that not all prints seem to cut out well in 5-inch squares. Some work out better in a larger or smaller format. And some just don't cut apart well.
I think some prints do need to be fussy cut to work out well - and that uses a lot of extra fabric.

I'm sorry. I didn't want to be the cause of starting a whole new swap if everyone was happy with the one that had started. I just thought if the other person didn't reply that wanted to join, I could take her place. I know I'm doing mine for a little girl but the squares I already have from the last swap are generic so I probably would want to continue in the same vein. I'll wait to hear what the concensus is, but if I have to wait until the next time, I can. Course that's what I said the last one I missed. Maybe I'm just supposed to not get another set.
