    I sent a quilt to a friend about 8 years ago and it never showed up. Has never been seen since either. After that loss, I made sure to include both addys inside the box and I now use a mailing bag with the information listed on it too inside any box I send. I'm not willing to lose another quilt that way. Oh and I make sure to have delivery confirmation too.
    Yes all that and lots of INS and a pic of quilt in your photo album. With everyone praying for the quilt it should show up. Best of luck to you.

    Sorry to hear about you SL and the quilt. When I mail something special or expensive I insure it and use Delivery confirmation. Cost is minimal compaired to the price of a lost item.

    As soon as you make a new one it will show up.
    If not someone has a work of art.
    So sorry :-(

    The mail has probably been delayed. Parts of MD around the DC Metro area still do not have power, so it is understandable that there might be a delay in getting USPS packages shipped "ground".

    i wouldnt count on the usps finding anything i mailed my brother a hat and my neices some gift cards march 19th and theres no sign of them yet. i canceled the gift cards but i cant find another cap like the one i mailed him so i guess he just goes without. so now i bite the bullet and fed ex everything so far no problems with that its just expensive.
    its no wonder the post office is going broke when my pkg was lost i complained on the phone online and everywhere possible i only got one phone call about my pkg some guy at the distribution center in dallas really looked hard for it buti guess it never made it that far. no one else seemed to care. im thinking when it hit ok city it went north instead of south.
