Can I sign up if I only have fabric, and no yarn to send?  And I could send several different fabric scraps (of usable size) to add up to the 1.5 yards, correct?

This is a fabric for fabric swap, yarn for yarn swap or fabric/yarn, yarn/fabric. So.. whatever is fine.
I cannot answer to the fabric scrap question, but I'm sure kat will.

what size are the scraps?? I was hoping people wouldn't be sending anything under half a yard.

How many are in now?

The list is in the first thread, but it looks like 7 so far.

This may just be a dumb Canadian asking, but how long is a yard? Anyone know the metric conversion? I only understand meters.

Sorry, I should have thought of that

1 yard = 0.9144 meter
