Mailing the packages: The envelope is the key to mailing the packages. I used a regular envelope and it cost me over $1.00 ( can't remember exactly how much) then I used an envelope that was left over from my Christmas cards. it was the large 6 x 8.25 size and it only cost 1 forever stamp. I laid the squares in rows (so it was thin) and then put them on a piece of card stock and wrapped them with saran wrap. I have been told they arrived safely and with no postage due. I can post a picture if anyone wants to see how I did it.
I will do a separate post for cutting fabric. Barb |
I do get some pulling with this die. I think it might be the size and have found when my cutting mat get worn that makes a difference also. I still think it is faster cutting this way. I like to iron a pile of fabric and then cut 2 1/2", 3 1/3 and tumblers all at the same time. I have made a ton of quilts from the 3 1/2" squares. The Go was one of the best things I've ever treated myself to.

Mamaskeeto. do you have a problem with lifting the pieces? ... I get alot of pulling and I'm very careful to make sure the fabric is lined up correctly with the grid...i don't have that problem with the strip cutter...I cut one way and then lay them crosswise and cut again...

sew4nin I mail my stuff the same way Barb does. It really does work. I use any type of thin cardboard, I have been know to recycle cereal boxes. When I wrap mine in plasitc wrap I will poke a few small holes in the plastic so air can escape so when you take to post office it fits through their little envelope thing. Barb and I swap charms on another site and our envelopes have 100 charms in them so this should be not problem for 50 charms.
