How do you score such treats?
I would hate to be the sender and have just a couple little items because of that...any ideas would be greatly appreciated so I wouldn't shortchange anyone.
Thanks
I personally look at it from the viewpoint that if a "treasure" or fabric is sitting in my stash and has never been used I see it as a free gift to go with my package which adds a little special extra value. However, I also try to find items on the person's list that I can include in the package as well. Sales, coupons and a discount at the LQS help too.
