NOT going to buy those myself, but some might have to! My whole point was "WHO" feels slighted if everyone is sending is way beyond the $10 gift items? I guess I just don't understand the slighted part! I don't tend to send a big box full of magazine pages, candy, etc, but I do pick nice items geared to the person I am sending to!

Lucky you, Jacqui! As for the rest, don't worry about it. Don't even think about it. Just enjoy sending and receiving your packages and let the rest sort itself out on its own.

Yah, let me get a few pics done. I messaged SEGASAL some more info, which is probably confusing too. Haha.

when i was mailing blocks and f8's in swaps i had to pay a package price for my international mailings because my envelopes were thicker than a first class envelope price. maybe they have changed this since i was in the block swaps about 2 months ago but i know it was no where near 4 lbs for a first class international mailing then. i guess when i get back into these swaps i can deal with the pricing then.

thanks for the info though.

Today was my lucky day. I received a wonderful package from Marni. It was well worth the wait. I got 3 FQ's in my favorite colors orange, blue, purple. A very nice kit from connecting threads to make a table runner. A frixon pen. I have been wanting one of these for awhile now. Also, a beautiful runner that I will put in the dining room of our new house. Also, binding clips from clover. Thank you so much Marni

I can't believe it is time to start on May's packages already. Thanks everyone for another great month!

it looks like it is just a tissue pocket with a series of extra folded fabrics attached. i think i can make this without a pattern. i will see what i can create and post a pic.
