My Postage Stamp 2" swap envelopes were too fat!
They would NOT fit through the slot on my postmaster's (Prudence) measuring device, so they would've had to be counted as parcels and cost over $2 each! I scooped them up and took them all back home with me and re-packaged each one as per Ms. Prudence's suggestions to make them flatter. Here is what worked perfectly:
I taped short stacks to half a sheet of copy paper and placed them into a 6"X9" manilla envelope and taped over the metal clasp. The resulting charge? It was $0.70 cents each! Some difference when you have 6 to mail out.
Here are some of the big quilts from the Cocheco Show last Sunday in Rochester, New Hampshire. They were all so lovely! Remember, you may click on any picture to enlarge it.
I so enjoyed all of these, many thanks to all the quilters!
Happy sewing!

I love a quilt show with lots of traditional style quilts!
"Remembering Alec" was poignant.
