Not a problem. Hopefully, I was able to help a bit. Maybe you could send some squares to PP and that will help save on shipping. I am in the same boat you are, my wallet can't keep up either.
Hi Leyli,
I mailed my squares to Planet Purl this morning. I mailed 52 of them. I mailed them in 2 plastic bubble wrap envelopes and it costs me $11.90. I live in Georgia and Planet Purl is in Florida. So, it may be worth you mailing them there also. I don't know what the answer is as far as shipping. It sounds like PP maybe does not do charity work all the time for KAS, so this may be a short term solution.
Welcome to our warm KAS community. It's great to see you. We hope you will enjoy the forum and your region's group. You should join the USA group!
There are lots of great discussions going on in the forum, including the monthly challenges.
We have a challenge every month, if you want to get involved please do. It's not compulsory at all but some of the work done is just lovely. Have a look at the November challenge - the SLIP-OVER (under challenges in the main forum) this will give you an idea of some of the fantastic work this community is doing for the children of South Africa. Here is a link to the November challenge photos:
