Make sure you enclose it in one or two plastic bags that seal. I've received fabrics that have been saved from shipping damage by the plastic baggie.

i put them into a small ziplock, just in case and fold it up & put it into a business size envelope...all the time, have never had a problem at the post office mailing fat quarters or blocks in a regular envelope (the ziplock is just protection from wet...)
sometimes it has cost me 60some cents to mail. but they have always gone through no problem

I had to mail some blocks and FQ's this week, and they have increased the size for a "letter" to mail. YIPPEE. I usually wrap in cling wrap or Press-and-seal before mailing.

Maybe that's why my angel hasn't received her little present.

I just sent out a fat quarter bundle.. I placed all my fabric in the store bag as I don't have any sandwich bags or saran wrap in my house (long story, let's just say I'm trying to sell) anyhow.. I wrapped mine inside of the plastic bag and then I placed it in a bubble envelope.. I am excited for her to get it..

I've refolded fat quarters to where they fit nicely inside a card. Card protects the fabric and you can pick them up real cheap at dollar stores or discount card outlets. A fat quarter is an inexpensive gift you can give for a quilter's birthday.

Press the flat quarter flat and wrap it in press n seal works too.

Love to stitch

Thank you for all of the suggestions. I have it pressed flat and wrapped in plastic and in the envelope. Just need to go to PO today and mail it. This is such a great group to belong to, hope you all have a great day.

I don't know what i was thinking lol. I just folded mine up and stuffed in an enevelope with a small note. I hope she gets it, it was really cute fabric. :)
