I gave my LAQ wool batting (Hobbs Heirloom) and she liked it so much after quilting my quilt that she ordered a giant roll of it.
You're not just moving to Alaska, you are moving to the boonies... in Alaska. Each thing on it's own is quite an adventure, combined is... wow. I imagine anything shipped, even if it was free on the first leg of the journey, is going to cost to get it out by boat or plane to you.
One thing is for sure... take that cold very, very seriously. My brother lives in Fairbanks and is a police officer. The things he has told me.... brrrr! They do all sorts of things we've never even thought of to keep functioning in the freezing temperatures. The other day he wrote about how nice it was that things had warmed up finally to -20 below zero!
Wishing you a good and safe experience!
