    Just to clarify, these don't have to be "patriotic" right?

    I'll send you and email but will see if there are enough to sign up for this swap. I am okay if we reduce the number of squares in a set.

    I would also like to know if it is restricted to just patriotic fabric or anything with the correct color combinations.

    Are most of you doing bright shades or the colors or more dull, like civil war colors? I may have to do shopping and might as well buy what will go best with other choices.

    the color 'shade; can be whatever yall decide.. I personally like the bright colors.. but im a fan of civil war too.. so im good with either.. IF there's a preference let me know and ill use whatever yall decide..

    Remember it can be in color combinations of :
    Red & White
    Blue & White
    Red & Blue
    Red & White & Blue

    it DOES NOT have to be patriotic... but can be if you choose.. heck, Red hearts in the blue sky works !


    We definitely CAN cut down the number of sqs to 8 instead of 12 so then we only need 8 members to participate.. with you two LaurieJo and Quilt Addict that makes 5 participating.. and only need 3 more to avoid dups... IM game if yall are..

    My fabrics would probably be a mix of some patriotic and some not. I am trying to cut down on how much I buy, or at least buy only on sale. So I am trying to use my stash.

    So, can one set have more than one fabric if those fabrics ARE NOT in another set? I'm asking because I have 1/2 yard cuts of some of these color combos...not enough for 8 squares.

    Also, this is probably a silly question, but what do people use the white noodles for? Sashing? Isn't that usually all the same fabric? Just curious. Thanks!
