Here is some info for people participating from outside of the United States regarding the postage on the return package. I went the the US postal service website and was able to sign in and create a mailing label. I think this will work although I only went as far as the payment page because I have to know my mailing date and the weight of the package. Here are instructions if you are interested--there is a choice of many countries world wide.
1. Go to
http://www.usps.com
2. Sign in (you will have to create an account if you don’t have one)
3. Select “Click-N-Ship” from under the heading Prepare to Ship
4. Select your country (province if you are in Canada)
5. Select “go”
6. Enter the Return Address (I used the address we are to ship the triangles to—Put the box number as Address 2 and the street address as address 1)
7. Enter your address in the send to portion of the page. Make sure you have the correct country selected.
8. Select “continue”
9. Select “priority mail international small flat rate box” or "priority mail international flat rate evelope"
10. Select “continue”
11. Under “enter package information” –
a. contents – select gifts (or an appropriate selection from the drop down menu)
b. Contents description – Fabric
c. Comments – 2 inch fabric squares for exchange
12. Under “enter item information” –
a. Detailed description – (amount) 2 inch fabric squares
b. Item Value – (I entered $15)
c. Quantity - (I entered 1 because you cannot get the weight to go small and then you will have too much weight compared to the package weight)
d. Item weight – enter weight in pounds
13. Select “continue”
14. At the “Print shipping labels” page – review your shipping label
15. If all the information is correct, then select “continue”
16. Payment Method – “use a credit card” and enter your billing information.
17. Select “continue” – print label on 8.5 x 11 sheet
