The increase that was supposed to happen in January did not go through. But, in January all new stamps will be "forever" stamps.
If your squishy is less than 1/4 inch thick and weighs less than 1 oz the cost is 44 cents. It is easy to stay within this if you use seran wrap and fold to the size of your envelope. After you make the block, it is difficult to get it under 1/4 inch so you have to pay 61 cents.
If you put your fabric in a baggy it is best to cut off the zipper part because that is what causes the damage when it goes through the machine. It can also make your squishy exceed the 1/4 width and therefore cost you more.
Your post office will probaly try to make it even more difficult than my explaination :shock: There are other variables like the size of the envelope and the temperment of the clerk.
