I'm getting ready to send my first quilt to a LA. What would you suggest is the best way to mail it? Insured? Delivery Confirmation? How should I package it?

TIA

I would use UPS - first $100 of insurance is free, tracking is free.

Yes, I would do everything in my power to keep it safe all the way around!

Should I use their packaging? Or my own?

ask the long arm quilter how she or he suggests you do it too.

Always insure and have delivery confirmation. The plastic bag is a very good idea.

How much should I insure it for?

it is also suggested you indicate it is "textiles" and not quilt. the word quilt is a flag for thieves.
