Ladies in the fat quarter swap- Your guidelines are

·      4 fat quarters from your swap and the only extra fabric you may use is up to  1 metre  of another fabric of your choice.

·      Backing and binding is not included in fabric allowance.

Ladies we are looking forward to seeing some creative articles.
