I've also become sort of a "keep it in the community" sort of charitable contributor, following along the church's guidelines, to donate to our local Deseret Industries, and work there. However, having said that, I applaud those who are making the world a better place no matter how they do it, and bravo to you for gathering together a batch of blocks to send.<br /><br />ElizabethOPQuilthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08622702911207665333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8347662658917669211.post-465803137664880792014-03-10T12:29:15.837-05:002014-03-10T12:29:15.837-05:00Hi Leila- are you still collecting/sending orphan ...Hi Leila- are you still collecting/sending orphan blocks?

The postal clerk told me it's less expensive to use your own packaging instead of a priority envelope/box and that it would arrive at the same time. That is what I did and it cost about $16 vs $24. Still, it's not inexpensive. I love your idea of collecting blocks and postage and sending a large package together. I will have more blocks done soon, just let me know where to send them. Thanks, Leila!

But I have a whole stack of orphans from quilting bees that would quilt up pretty quickly. I'd probably need about a month so if that's OK I would be happy to do some.
