is having a special bag for a customer’s quilt. I get them from Cleaner’s Supply, a drycleaning supplier. They are bags the cleaners would send home with a blanket or comforter in them. The bags come out to something less than a dollar each, and come in several different sizes. Most of the time, I use the 15x18x9 size.
COMF15 Blanket Bag 15″ x 18″ x 9″
COMF20 Comforter Bag 20″ x 20″ x 8″
Several customers re-use the bags when they bring another quilt back to me. Of course, because they are mostly plastic, they shouldn’t be used for quilt storage, but they do help provide a safe trip home for the quilt that you’ve worked so hard to help create.
I read one time of a customer’s quilt that was sent home in a white garbage-type bag; hubby saw it sitting by the door, threw it out. Can’t say whether it was true or not, but sending a quilt home in some type of clear bag always seemed like a good idea to me after that!

That’s very nice that you provide those for your customers-I have some hanging around the house that I purchased bedding in. Personally I use the white kitchen size trash bag to keep my tops in or if I have one- a large plastic bag from a store but then my husband would either look inside first or wait and ask before throwing it away.
I am enjoying the pictures SO MUCH! I have always wanted to take
the same cruise. We hope you bring your pictures to Port Aransas. Eileen
