Ok, here's where I got confused in the last swap. You mention to get 1/2 yard of fabric and it makes 24 - 5" squares and we get 4 squares to keep. But you also mention no repeats. But if we get 1/2 yard of fabric, then the squares would all be the same that we mail off. Please help as I want to make sure I do this correctly.

We changed this swaps as to have no repeats, Before We use to allow doubles. I keep the cutting guide in because it gave everyone of an idea of how many squares a 1/2 yard would make. I shall change it around a bit to better make sense. Thanks

So, do we send 5 charms of the same kind of fabric to each person.?
this is my first swap for this, sorry to ask but I am still a bit confused with directions.

@Kayenderes - no, we send each person 5 different 5" squares. This is where I was confused on the last swap like this. :-)
