Just finsihed going through my squares and was surprised to see doubles in a couple of pacakges, I thought that there were to be no doubles? I guess they will get PIF on the next swap, when will that be? Thank for the hard work Twisted!

were there more than 50 squares in those packages? i know in most of my packages i included more than 50 squares (up to 60 in some) and some of those may have been doubles but there is always at least 50 different fabs in each of my packages.

i just want to say that i have gone through two of my stamp packages today and there were several that were cut less the 1.5" in both. i am up to 20 squares so far between the two packages that are cut less than 1.5" which is far too many in my opinion. i used a regular seam gauge to measure the squares.
i usually cut my stamps a little bit larger than 1.5" to make sure the receivers can have a true 1.5" square. i am aware that we may all use different methods to cut our squares, i am just asking that we take a bit more time to make sure the squares are 1.5". while a couple of "short" squares may make it into the baggies, 20 of 100 squares are too many imho.
