    That sounds like tooooo much work.....thinking open package of 50 and start pairing them.....2 rows of 25 stitched together.....on to next package....etc. etc. etc...until the ten packs are sewn together randomly....then sash with a neutral or black and on to the next package of 10 sets of 50 for another block measuring 20 rows of 25 squares.....absolutely random.....otherwise, I know me and anal as I am I'll be 100 before I get them all sorted. I'll wind up with very light / light / light med / med / dark med / dark / very dark / misc / -----oh no---scrappy, random is sounding much better!

    Came home to find my little squares all tucked in to their little baggies. The little time I have had to look at them, I can tell they are some really great fabrics. Thanks Twisted Quilter for organizing this. Thanks to all the participants. Can't wait for the next one. Hint Hint.

    Woohoo! Got my squishie today! And, once again, I have not been getting emails notifying me of new posts to my watched topics so I haven't been keeping up with all your comments. Can't wait to look through those goodies! Thank you Twisted for taking up the slack. You've done an awesome job. Can't wait for the next swap.
