I've been looking at my stash, but most of the floral is the retired Northcott State Flower series-all of them. Did you know that just 1 FQ is $10???? I'm going to hang on to this stuff a few more years,lol! So, I'm going to go buy some more floral that would be more appropriate for a swap. Off to Hobby Lobby I go! Amie :o)

If you have the whole series I imagine it's worth more than individually added together! Make sure you have a BIG label on them especially with the words DO NOT THROW AWAY!

My family is well aware of what it's worth. I alomost passed out when I saw what that line is worth. I imagine it will still be uncut 100 years from now-lol! Amie

Amie, here's the state flower quilt I made with embroidery designs. I only had two 6" squares of each fabric. I would love to get my hands on a couple of 6" square collections of the state birds.

Thanks Lori - didn't see the answer to the washing question. I wash my fabric when I bring it into the house. That way I won't forget when I go to make a quilt. However, if I have bought fabrics for a wall hanging I don't wash those. Littlebits - I luv your fabrics as well. I have my fabrics picked as well. So I noticed there was so talk about holding onto these blocks until we see what the postal rate is going to be.
