I mailed mine yesterday, Priority Mail. The PO didn't have padded bags so sent it in a different type of priority mail envelope. I taped it up really good, though. The guy behind the counter said, "Well, look at that!" Haha

The Tyvek bags are good too... just not the paper (light cardboard) envelope. Those split and tear open too easily. I'll watch for your package. Hope I can get into it, LOL!

Hi Everyone, last week I was looking for containers for my 2.5" candies and the largest I could find was compartments of 2 1/8" compartments...These were made by Flambeau and distributed by Walmart (tool boxes ) and Harbor Freight (tool boxes)..I'm not sure if that is big enough to get the 2" squares out of the compartment easily..I will have to bring a stack of pieces and see if it works. I am also wondering if there's a way to attach a lift/pull up tab in each compartment to make it easier to lift...the type that lifts batteries out of their compartments...hmmmmm.

My 2'' charms went out today. Sent the regular squares plus 6 sets of 20 Christmas/winter charms. Plus, I stuffed the envelope full of a surprise for you, our hostess, sewbizgirl. Hope you enjoy every inch!

Honchey, I will check the Bass Pro Shop next time I'm out that way, and see if I can find a box with bigger compartments. Will let you know if I do.
I keep most of my cut squares in those plastic stacked drawer units. Just bought another one the other day!

Are you all aware of the Scrappy Quilt Show thread here on the QB? Hundreds of pages long, it's full of photos of people's scrappies. I'm enjoying going through and getting ideas and inspiration. There's a 9-patch star quilt in the middle of this page that just makes me DROOL:
