The few times I sent quilts/fabric overseas (not to Australia, though, just Europe) I put "craft supplies" on the customs forms. Do you think that is acceptable?

OK - did not think of that! Will put "quilts" on the customs form and hope for the best.

I asked my husband about this, since he does a LOT of international shipping at work. He says to make sure you mark that it is a gift. We figured the "value" of a quilt block (12" square at $4/yd, which is the wholesale price of most fabric) to be $0.36, to help in calculating the retail value that they will ask for on the form. I have sent fabric to Europe before, and the post office here told me to state that it was "100% cotton quilting fabric". I did so, and the package got to it's destination without any problems. But it was not to an APO address, so I don't know if that makes a difference.
