Dina,
I ship fabric home via USPS when traveling. It's cheaper than paying for a checked suitcase, and since I only take carry-on luggage, it would mean waiting for luggage at the other end. I love that the PO brings it to me, and it's like a surprise all over again when I open and go through my new fabric!

Makes sense to me but DH might not see it that way. The second picture is me trying to decide which batiks had to come home with me - the most delicious decision on Earth!
I'll try to post a picture of my spoils but probably not until get home.
