Description:

Fabric sure does come in different discriptions. We have charms and jelly rolls. Now I have come across what is called "layer cake" fabric squares that are larger than the regular charms. They are 10"x 10" squares and I think these are great as you can do a lot with that size:

  • Make a nice quick quilt with these big squares
  • Cut them into quarters and you have 4- 5"x5" charm size
  • Cut them in half & have 2 - 5" squares and cut strips from the 2nd half
  • Cut strips only
  • Cut on the diagonal once or twice & have triangles.
  • Create purses, dotees and craft projects

Requirements:

  • Send 10 10" squares to 1 partner.

  • Sender's Choice, but 100% cotton only; each square different w/some contrasting squares if possible. No more than 2 solid colors.

  • Please don't cut from blouses or clothing. Use nice pieces left over from projects, FQs and yardage.

  • Newbies welcome with a nice completed profile, at least 5 completed swaps and a 5 rating. Everyone else must have a min. of 4.9 with a good excuse for any 1 or 3.

PM me if any questions.

Just think - with 10 squares you could end up with 40 5" charm sq. or 20-80 triangles depending on how you cut them, and up to 50 2" strips - or you can mix and match. Yea - now that sounds like fun!
