Hi Everyone! I have been a lurker here for quite awhile (and I've posted a few times). I finally decided to take the plunge and signed up for this swap. It sounds like a lot of fun. :)
I do have a question.... I have a few F8's I bought at my LQS but they are not 18x11, they are 9x22. Is that size okay with everyone? Please let me know what you think. Thanks! And I am looking forward to working with all of you :) |

Please let me know what you think. http://quilting.about.com/od/quiltin...fat_eighth.htm I have to cut my yardage, and it would be helpful to know the dimensions. Well, actually, I think I'll cut mine oversize anyway. |
Ladies,
I had always thought the F8 was 9x22 as well and then was informed it was 18 x 11. I think I am ok either way-whatever is best for each quilter to cut and send-ultimately it gives you the same amount of fabric to work with. Any one else have an opinion on this? Hugs April |

I just ordered my fabric today so I am also interested in whether to cut 18x11 or 9x22. I had mentioned an f8 as 18x11 as being half of 18 x 22 but I can cut either way.

I have heard mixed reviews about the F8 but as Mad posted a true one is 9 x 22. If nobody here minds I think I will leave it up to each person who sends the F8 as to whether they send 9x22 or 18x11. I personally like the 18x11 as it does give you the ability to cut a bigger square for something if need be.. Hugs April |
