    I saw this posting on Craigslist this morning. They are blocks with butterflies on them.

    I don't know anything about them but if you are interested here is the link: http://altoona.craigslist.org/art/1834008086.html

    She does mail order according to her post!

    I don't mean to burst the bubble... but doesn't that seem to good to be true?
    She also says you get 500 each of the 4 fabrics she shows... wouldn't that be 2000 pieces?

    I live in the Altoona area and these have been showing up on craigs list all over several states.
    these are also heat pressed blocks not printed
    like a heat pressed t shirt
    will crack over time and you can't iron them
    will be slightly stiff also

    So it is like an iron on heat transfer design ?

    The pricing is all over the place.... 20.00 for the first set ... 25.00 for the second set ...18.00 for the next two sets after the first two sets :roll: LOL

    that's what I got from the description
    each listing has a little different wording and yes the pricing is rather odd.

    I had just glanced at it. Now that I re-read it I'd stay away too!

    Sorry for getting anyone too excited!
