i take out cardboard and put in zip lock baggie

First Class is anything 13 oz or less.

Make sure you enclose it in one or two plastic bags that seal. I've received fabrics that have been saved from shipping damage by the plastic baggie.

i put them into a small ziplock, just in case and fold it up & put it into a business size envelope...all the time, have never had a problem at the post office mailing fat quarters or blocks in a regular envelope (the ziplock is just protection from wet...)
sometimes it has cost me 60some cents to mail. but they have always gone through no problem |
I had to mail some blocks and FQ's this week, and they have increased the size for a "letter" to mail. YIPPEE. I usually wrap in cling wrap or Press-and-seal before mailing.

Maybe that's why my angel hasn't received her little present.

I just sent out a fat quarter bundle.. I placed all my fabric in the store bag as I don't have any sandwich bags or saran wrap in my house (long story, let's just say I'm trying to sell) anyhow.. I wrapped mine inside of the plastic bag and then I placed it in a bubble envelope.. I am excited for her to get it..

I've refolded fat quarters to where they fit nicely inside a card. Card protects the fabric and you can pick them up real cheap at dollar stores or discount card outlets. A fat quarter is an inexpensive gift you can give for a quilter's birthday.
Press the flat quarter flat and wrap it in press n seal works too. |
Thank you for all of the suggestions. I have it pressed flat and wrapped in plastic and in the envelope. Just need to go to PO today and mail it. This is such a great group to belong to, hope you all have a great day.

I don't know what i was thinking lol. I just folded mine up and stuffed in an enevelope with a small note. I hope she gets it, it was really cute fabric. :)
