    I agree, they get ripped open all the time. I use the 5 by 7, this way I feel safe in sending them.

    I won't use a letter envelope, not taking that kind of chance with my fabric or someone's block.

    Elisabrat, mine are stuffed and ready to address. Just a suggestion to everyone... label your envelope some way so it says Boom 8 and then then group you're assigned to. So many of us are in the FQ and F8 swaps and 2 of these that it will make it so much easier to be able to go right to the spreadsheet. PLease?????

    At least at this point I know what fabric I am going to use. I have been busy quilting on the last. Getting the quilts ready for giving. Maybe I will get the fabric cut tonight and see if any envelops left from last swap. Can't wait!!!!!
