~ well my pal's package will be ridiculously full this month due to my preferring to mail things rather than pack them. but i do not believe that she is able to post pics soooo...... no one will know but the two of us.
~ lindar hopefully you are able to find more than 4 fq's for $10. my lqs does $1 fq sales or i shop their remnant bin and usually cut a fq from the fabrics i buy ($10-$12/yd fabrics for half price). i don't normally shop joann's because one is not close enough for me but i know their fq's are around $1. i shop the remnant bins at hancock's for their $2/yd remnants and cut up fq's from them. hopefully you can find some fq deals near you.

Off Topic Alert: On the July Doll Quilt thread one of the members was talking about what she thought of as her lack of piecing skills. (She's dead wrong) I mentioned that I was going through my bins to finish UFO and I was working on some blocks that I pieced before I had much of a grip on silly things like measuring. (Do we have a big red faced smiley I can insert here?) Anyway ... here are pix of the top I just finished this morning ...

So I got the things I ordered for my SP (ok still waiting on one but it should be here today).. and I got one of those large priority mail envelopes. Now that I put them side by side, I can totally stuff more stuff in there! yay!, just gotta keep it under 4 pounds. We'll see what I can do.

BELIEVE me when I tell you that I (and several others on here) can fit an unbelievable amount of "stuff" into a flat rate envelope hahahah....Krystyna is a pro at the* padded*flat rate envelopes but you have to order some of those from the post office (no cost for the envelope itself) and then you tape them up with packaging tape and OH BOY!!

I am hoping to finish my secret pals package today. I have one more item to get ... I have been looking and looking and I am unable to find it ... even though a couple of weeks ago everywhere I went it was there. I have one more place to check ... the liquor store ... yep I said the liquor store ... wish me luck that I find it there.
