OK. Another question.
Amie, I see where you say you sent 20 bags with 4 noodles in each bag. Is that for both months? Or just one?
I've got mine cut & ready to mail but I keep confusing myself. How many bags with 4 noodles in each do we need for both months? 28 for one month & 56 for both months, right?
Please help. I plan to mail them on Thursday.
Linda

You will need a pair for each girl for each month. I read at the bottom of Carolyn's post that it was OK to put all 4 strips in one baggie, that made it easier.

I shipped 20 baggies with 4 different shop quality 2.5" strips in each. If there are any extra, the hostess will keep them for her. Hosting is alot of work so a small gift is always appreciated.

There are 17 signed up I think, so I just sent 20. But, most of the other ladies sent 28 strips for each month. I sent 20 for each month. BUT, I will only get back the amount I send minus the extras, which is fine with me. HTHs, Amie :oD

This is what the original post says:
"Please send 2 noodles (1 mostly blue and the other predominately red) cut 2.5inches x length of fabric for each month. Label each bag and then place in a larger zip lock bag. To make things easier for me please put your name/address on the large bag and label it either June or July. Since you can cut 28 of these out of 2 yds. It would keep things consistent if we do 28 noodles of each color. So 28 bags for each month with 2 noodles in each bag."

Does that mean 28 bags for June & 28 bags for July?
I am so confused! LOL

And if there's only 17 of us doing it, why are we sending 28 anyway? Can you tell I've never done one of these noodle swaps?? LOL

We were hoping for 28 swappers so we would all end up with a full size Jelly roll, but we only have 17. But, in case there are a couple of late bloomers, I added extra. If there are no more to sign up then the Hostess can keep them as a thankyou. Amie

She'll keep 11 noodles from each one of us 17 participants?!? That's about 180 noodles! Good grief! That's like... 13 yards of fabric. Can that be right?
I understand giving a thank you few extra to the hostess but not that many. I'll do like you, Amie, and send 20 for each month.

This is just getting more confusing to me each time I ask a question. LOL

Hi Linda--I just sent you a pm but here is my plan....I am marking how many noodles people send and then swapping out that same amt. So if you send 17 for June I will send you 17 if you send 20 you get 20 etc...I think that will work out best for all of us...
