    Melinda, I mailed the fabric with a 6 x 9 manila envelope with 2 stamps on it, if you need more please let me know. I was thinking of sending you another "Ugly" and I will add more postage for you to put on that envelope. The one I mailed to you was $1.20 not to bad. I wrapped it in cling wrap. Both the wrap and the envelopes I got at the dollar store. They were 6 envelopes for 99cents and the wrap was also 99cents.

    I am going to use this method to do all exchanges, when I mail back the completed blocks.

    I bought 5 pack of 6x9 padded plastic envelopes at walmart. Don't remember the price, but they said "super strong & moisture resistant" on the envelopes. I put on 2 stamps on the return envelope and included an extra in case it is needed, if not, easy to send back with my new "ugly" fabric.

    HMM, sounds like this swap is going to be an autumn colors lover's dream swap.
