I would not move anything in an open truck. Only a box type enclosed truck would do.

I hope whomever lost the quilts will find them. Not everyone gets on FB or uses a computer.

My quilts and sewing machine would be in the car with me....even if I had to have my husband drive in another vehicle to make room for them in my car! LOL

I'm not planning a move but I agree with lindaschipper. I think I would do the same or have them in an enclosed trailer that I would be pulling behind my car. I know some have to have vans to move them, but some things are just irreplaceable

I remember when I moved from NewZealand to the US I was very worried about my quilts. Some had to be shipped by boat and I managed to squeeze two into my suitcase. I did feel like I would probably never see them again. Luckily that was not the case, but I agree with Lindaschipper, if I ever had to move again, my quilts and machine are staying with me! And I pack them!

Definitely! I"d make more than one trip rather than trust my sewing machines, quilts, wearable art and great-Grandma's lamp to movers.

I went to the Facebook posts. The quilts were not reunited with their owner according to the updated information. The tops are really nice so hopefully the owner will be found.

The correct owner was not found - person had similar story, but not her quilts.
