Woot! So excited :)) I have a question------This is my first time participating in a swap. I've got civil war fat quarters out the wazoo, but not enough of one swatch to make every completed 12.5x12.5 block the same as the others. I will buy fabric if they should all be identical, that isn't a...
Half & Half--- it's the same as half crème and half skim milk 1:1 ratio
Flour--- typically just plain old flour (typically the white, not whole wheat)
Chocolate--- we have all those too! If it says Baker's Chocolate, that's the high cocoa content stuff. If it just says chocolate, the powdered...
I just went to this link, enlarged it, and am really jazzed to see some pieces are the same as a pile that my mom gave me! I love the colors in these though, mine are more muted and shades of cranberry, dark greens, and brown.

Ack! I will definitely be looking at my library too. I can't fathom paying that much for a book!! (I'm a bit of a closet book hoarder---library book sales are my weakness!) And those are playing in my margin too! It keeps buggering things up. No clue how to get rid of them though I'm typically...
I am so excited about this project! Thank you for the welcome! I look forward to getting to know everyone and seeing how this is going to unfold. I love quilting, but it's been seriously years since I've done anything (since having my kids), and it has always been one of my "zen" activities...
