MEN!!!!!!! Quilts weight heavy...... NEVER take a man's word for it. Oh dear total weight 2.7 kilogram...Yeh right! Total weight of ONE box 6 kilograms How redfaced was I at the post office with 5 boxes all weigh around 6 kilograms and expecting to send them airmail to Zimbabwe for $150 .....Well I sent two boxes and I have three left so back to begging for donatons again. Cost $75 per box, HUH !!! lot different to $25 per box.

All Packed Up and Ready To Go













At last I have the last lot of quilts packed an ready to go... Off to the post office soon....


Thanks to the generous donations I have $150 to pay for postage and the total weight is 2.7 kilos so maybe I will be able to send them air mail.
