    It's called a bag lady swap and you take a ziploc freezer bag and fill it full of fabric and swap bags with a partner and then you make a top and send it back.

    Looks like you are doing great. I make lap robes of 5 inch squares almost daily. They are donated to veterans. I really identify with you.

    I also make other types pieced quilts.

    Congratulations on becoming a quilter.

    Using 5 inch squares for Transformer for my grandson for Christmas.

    Everyone has to start somewhere. Just jump in and go for it. With each project you will see your skills improve.

    Make sure you take pictures and label your quilts! All is well that ends well.
