WOW !! that was a lot of weight !!
I mailed by parcel post today my huge suitcase back to WA. It has the quilt I am working on and the waterfall WH for my dining area, on as well as clothes, extra shoes and my DJ quilt book and blocks. Because the quilt takes up a lot of space it was only $60 this time -- In the spring it was $76 -- a lot heavier.
And prescriptions -- I don't trust the PSA guards not to confiscate stuff. They have total control and can do whatever they please -- even if it is against regulations. It is a sad state of affairs when we have to mis-trust authority. It will get to WA before I do next week

ok, quick question...
should the salvage edge be cut off even if there is no words on it? what I mean is that some have a slightly different texture on the salvage...should that not be included in the fat quarter measurements?
I'm not sure and definitely don't want any of my fats disqualified! :)

And remember, there is no dumb question. We all have a lot of opinions, and are willing to offer them.
