oh count me in I just made 4 of these and would love to recycle my fabric and receive new additions to my stash. I will post photos of mine as soon as I get them uploaded to a photobucket account!
As for patterns I used the Tossed Nine Patch for one and it was lovely. I used 4 different patterns and used this as a learning experience for me knowing the kids would not notice if my points were a bit off.
soooo 6" squares? 6.5" squares? I am a little lost

We are sending 6 1/2 squares sewcarolyn. I sure don't mind that you're sending 3, more fabric is always better! We can make our quilts that much bigger!

question.....I have been cutting my squares and since I am recycling fabric from I Spy Quilts I just made I have a mish mash of novelty prints for boys and girls. Should I separate the girly fabric from the fabric that is more suitable for boys or just mix them up?

That's a good question. I'm happy for you that you can did into your stash for the fabric. I couldn't do that for this one, but I am for the January charm swap.

I don't know what everyone's preference is for fabric yet but we have one request for girl fabric and two that say it doesn't matter. You can send the fabric any way you like I think. There are bound to be instances during sorting where I will have to give boy fabric to someone who wanted only girl fabric, or vice versa. I can't guarantee that everyone will get only the kind of fabric they request, I can only try my best to give everyone a majority of what they want.
I might be able to re-match some pairs of charms from one sender to better suit the preferences of the people I'm sorting them out to.

Thank-you Lynn for the answer. I will put the girls fabric together. Personally I don't care what I get...It will be fun receiving new fabric from new friends. What a task you have taken on for us.
