I didn't know about the 2 sizes either! I don't believe I've ever seen a large. It's strange how each post office is different. My post office will not put tape on packages, but they're more than happy to sell you some tape. :D

Mailed mine today. They made me take scraps out of envelope. Too full. They then retaped.
Hope it gets there ok.

Whoa...I wonder what's going to happen when I take in 16 envelopes! :shock:

When you take in 16 envelopes, they will be soooo happy to see you! lol
You shouldn't have to buy tape. I was given a whole roll when my SIL was in Iraq. Still have it. They are so disorganized. No wonder they aren't making any money.
Hopefully they don't give you any trouble with all the pkgs.

I was doing multiple swaps a few years ago and had multiple envies to send and they all needed envelopes with return postage...the guy was SOOOO rude to me at the PO. He just looked at me and said you know...you are really holding my line up and I was so surprised I didn't say anything. But what I was thinking was..."WTF???"

Mailed my package off today! Can hardly wait for the shipping back day! :-) After reading some of your horror stories about PO's, I am glad I live in a small town with friendly staff. I kid with them each time I take a package in and tell them I am creating their job security!

3 more packages came in today from dd, walk-n-roll, and ntaylor. Thanks ladies, we're getting close!

Boy ntaylor, you were'nt kidding! I thought DH was bringing in a baby. :shock:

Hey NCQuilter, I'll take the 1.5" squares if that's okay with you.:o

All PM's answered.


That's fine with me! As long as they go to a good home :)
