2019/2020 2.5" Birthday Swap
#25
I'm happy to join for another year. Last year I made the mistake of using all of several colors in a project so I'm short on variety. This is the perfect way to get that problem solved. It always amazes me that I'll get 1,850 squares of fabric without any repeats!
Welcome newcomers! I hope you have as much fun as I do.

No pre-washed is NOT required. but with that said some may be pre-washed. Mine are mostly scraps, mostly given to me and gathered through out the past year. So I don't know if they are. I just know I like them and would put them in my own quilt. (and am....I always cut a set or two just for me).

A few more questions:
what kind of fabrics are best? I have several batik fat quarters that I think would make cute squares but don’t know if batiks are the best choice for this swap?
can you use precut candies?
