    I store my down in a mesh laundry bag. My IX UQ is just rolled up. I never stuff that:

    You could do what I did to my Shop.

    PTAC

    and add a

    Control Board

    Its a bit expensive but has worked flawless for me. Although I should say mine was free!

    Storing your UQ

    I just hang mine on a regular coat hanger. There is a handy little D-ring on the UQ that I hook on the loop of the hanger so it can't slip off. And I just fold my TQ in half on the hanger like a pair of pants. I really like the idea of the garment bags though... I could see me having a different garment bag for each season in the future when I have the money for a bunch of quilts... I want a second job to support my gear addiction but then when will I actually have the time to use all that new gear!?

    Conundrum...

    Storing your UQ

    I bought a moisture absorber at a gun store to put in my gun safe. When the color changes, it needs to be recharged. You do this by placing it in the oven for a time (instructions included.)

    Just another option.
