Gosh, @Lowena, that's expensive. Was it a large package? I fitted two quilts into a large shoe box and it was under 2 kg, so it was £3 to send it as a small parcel second class or £4 to send it second class signed for.

@Lowena - I usually use Collect Plus for sending my quilts. I can take them into the local village shop who are agents. They're all over the UK. The fee is about £6.99 for two quilts on a 3-5 day service. I only used the Post Office this time because I was late sending my quilt to Iminei. :o

@Iminei  - no tracking, I'm afraid. I sent it 1st Class so I'm hoping it will be with you tomorrow. -<

Better late than never but better never late.  My PL quilt is in one piece.  Now to find a backing.  DD has a duvet cover which would be perfect...  -< :D

No pics yet, @Iminei .  If I can find a suitable backing in the sewing room, I'll be able to get it finished over the weekend, but otherwise, it'll be early next week.
