One way to figure it out is if you cut fat quarter(s) into fourths and include 5 of those. So a fat quarter is 18x22 so that is:<BR/>-five 9x11 pieces<BR/>or ~four 11.25 x11 pieces<BR/>or ~three 15 x 11 pieces<BR/>I generally buy a yard and send approximately a 11x-12 inch piece of each of my fabrics. <BR/><BR/>So for 11 people, one yard of fabric will give you 12 pieces, so you need about 4 yards total if you are swapping with 11 other people. This is what I do, but I am sure there are other ways to do it!audreypawdreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01778150139132824073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5928032590084476943.post-74231008618096482302008-11-12T12:11:00.000-07:002008-11-12T12:11:00.000-07:00Well, I've signed up... hopefully.

Exactly what size pieces would I send of 4 fabrics to equal 3/8? Really in all what would you say suitable pieces are to send to equal the yardage and have a good variety?Amy K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07813188556312972038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5928032590084476943.post-91046449609604900342008-11-11T15:32:00.000-07:002008-11-11T15:32:00.000-07:00sounds like fun, but i can't take on one more thin...sounds like fun, but i can't take on one more thing before christmas. maybe the next one.jacquiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07362229673390519468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5928032590084476943.post-89522342955127858262008-11-11T14:10:00.000-07:002008-11-11T14:10:00.000-07:00Oh :( I was hoping to sign up (it was very nice of...Oh :( I was hoping to sign up (it was very nice of you to tell us how!) but I haven't been a member for a month!
