Number of swap partners:	1
Description:
Each month (or so) you will use the "sew as you go" method to make your partner 1 striped quilt block ~ 12.5" X 12.5" and the only two requirement is you must use no less than 6 different fabrics. Also NO batting. You will use some plain or leftover cotton fabric you have hanging around. When you have enough squares to make a quilt, you will add your own batting and whatever you pick for a backing. Here is the awesome tutorial you will use for this block! I love Jenny! In the video she uses backing, batting and then the strips. In ours we will only use a piece of fabric to sew the strips on to. You can start right away ~ senders choice in fabric! I have made this International too because you can fold your block in 3rds and it fits in a business envelope! I am SO excited about this swap!! Please, if you have any questions let me know.

Do the squares need to b sewn straight like the video, or can they be angled like the picture?
This is going to be fun.

@jn6754 They should be diagonal...at least that is how we have done it in the past.

I'm so glad this size is back! I was getting ready to start it up again... I've missed this one.
