We were allowed only one free checked bag (because we had an airline's credit card) and one small carry-on. For anything else we'd have had to pay $50 per bag, so you may want to check with your airline's baggage fees.
Yes, it is getting crazy. I moved from Cali to Hawaii 10 months ago, 5 suitcases, 1 small crate and a car (and they do not let you put anything in the car besides the spare tire lol). Luckily batting doesn't weigh much, it's just bulky but oncy it's in the spacebag it's no problem.
Also as a resident flying Hawaiian Airlines into Hawaii and you act with "Aloha" you don't have as much problems either. We're all in the same boat...we live on a rock with limited stores and need to bring stuff in! :)

Also check at Hobby Lobby. They have 40%off coupons every week and they carry W&N and W&W. Every time freinds and I head to the border I stop in at Hobby Lobby and get batting in 10 yard lengths. You also might want to check Fabric.com, they have great shipping.
Just thought of something else for bulky items. We moved to Mexico with 4 suitcases and learned very early on to buy black foot lockers with 2 wheels at Home Depot. They are labeled as TSA aproved and we use zip ties to keep them closed with a note and extra ties in in case TSA opens them. Still limited with weight but they work really well with ligh but bulky items.

Thanks Chery! That's a great idea that I didn't know about!! I will check out the pricing on one of those as well. Ruby
