I will have to check into that since I do love to swap and like you said flat rate makes it so easy. Have you seen the Flat rate bubble envelopes? I ordered some online recently. They open at the short end and they are that tyvek material. They expand a bit so they seem to fit more than the cardboard envelopes plus they keep everything nice and dry. They are free just like the cardboard envelopes.Robin (RsIslandCrafts)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06875986169322073281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-444221130150558371.post-90701063742472011632011-05-21T20:17:00.029-04:002011-05-21T20:17:00.029-04:00My fabric is ordered and I'm ready to cut.

So easy.<br />I was wondering if you could show us the red and white quilt in which all of us blogger friends sent you our red and white squares.<br />I would love to see the finished quilt. If you showed it, I guess I missed it. Seeing all of these red and white squares reminded me of it.<br />reeree1949@bellsouth.netElsiehttp://google.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-444221130150558371.post-82874246505810150262011-05-20T22:09:41.614-04:002011-05-20T22:09:41.614-04:00You may want to consider double-checking on those ...You may want to consider double-checking on those flat rate envelopes. I recently hosted an I Spy Swap and the post master refused to ship out the fabric bundles in the flat rate envelopes. He said the policy had been updated and the envelopes could only be used for "flat" items. Good luck with your swap. Sounds like fun!Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02001198718631356449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-444221130150558371.post-17768414538534673642011-05-20T21:19:45.139-04:002011-05-20T21:19:45.139-04:00from a postal employee, the first envelopes you sh...from a postal employee, the first envelopes you showed, the address is actually on the wrong side of the envelope. they do have from and to printed on them. also you can use a meter strip, companies do it all the time, when the envelope is folded in half it is obvious that the meter was mailed to you for return postage. if you do a lot of swaps you can even buy the priority envelopes with the postage printed on them from the usps.com website and have them mailed to you so you always have one on hand. if your envelope goes over 13 oz and you have the stamp on it, don't drop it in a blue mailbox, you have to take it to the postoffice and hand it to a clerk over the counter, otherwise you will get it back the following day.Ann Marie @ 16 Muddy Feethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18043510561974011878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-444221130150558371.post-14452008130061128222011-05-20T20:34:45.457-04:002011-05-20T20:34:45.457-04:00Great tutorial, even for veteran swappers...someti...Great tutorial, even for veteran swappers...sometimes we need to be reminded too! <br /><br />Shopping tomorrow for my red and white fabric...fun!<br /><br />MGMMary Grace McNamarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04994668228832105911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-444221130150558371.post-82103830796462640502011-05-20T20:08:38.973-04:002011-05-20T20:08:38.973-04:00Thank you Karen you did a awesome job will be wait...Thank you Karen you did a awesome job will be waiting for you email with your address thanks againLots of Fabric 2https://www.blogger.com/profile/17758650571455220215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-444221130150558371.post-6143207327437268252011-05-20T19:05:10.944-04:002011-05-20T19:05:10.944-04:00Thanks Karen.
