Sorry for your loss. In this day and age of quilts being stolen I would pack them and my machines in the car with me when moving.

Don't give up hope. As bad as it seems, sometimes things still turn up. You can imagine that the moving company does not understand the value to a quilt. (The quilt is beautiful, by the way!) I am sending a prayer and good wishes for your lost boxes to make their way home. Hugs to you from your quilting friends.

Is the company ready to compensate for the loss?

So sorry this happened to you. It boggles my mind that this happens as often as it does.

I had the same problem with my moving company. Lost boxes, damaged furniture. After remodeling the house, unpacking, etc. I was too tired to fight with the moving company for the lost/damaged goods. Think they realize that and take that into account. Just my take on the subject.

So sorry for your loss. Hopefully they will find them one of these days.

We used a well known moving company from our move from CA to AR. We had a horrible experience too and it took months to get compensated for all the loss and damage. The moving company acted like they couldn't be bothered after the first phone call. Only the promise of lawsuit got the ball rolling. Most of our boxes were open and looked rummaged through inside the truck!

So sorry! When I was a kid we moved using a moving company and the packers stole whatever caught their fancy. I will never trust a moving company again.

Hope you get your quilts back!

That is terrible, I hope they do show up, maybe if some one finds them they'll be honest enough to return them, stunning quilt.
