Oh, I hope the owner gets it back!!!! It is a lovely quilt that obviously had lots of work and love going into it!

That is a wonderful quilt. I hope the owner is able to reclaim it.

I hope they can find the owner too. I also think there might be a lesson here about putting more information on our labels. It's a really lovely quilt, I know someone is very sad about losing it.

What a beautiful quilt. Hopefully someone will see the show and remember where they have seen it...

WOW...fabulous quilt. I hope someone comes forward or they display it to be enjoyed.

That is one nice quilt. It looks like it came thru just fine. Hope the owner can be found.

Let that serve as a lesson to always put a label on our quilts that has more information that just "Grammie". I hope it can find it's way home.

Oh my, let us hope it finds its owners.

If anyone hears of a happy ending let us know.

I hope someone will post an update if they ever find the owner!

Praying that will happen!

That way hopefully the righ owner and not just anyone wanting a free quilt may claim it. They would need to identify it with names and all before the Center turns it over.

I am sending this to the people in my quilt group. Maybe some of you in okc could do the same and get the word out.

callen 03-16-2012 05:52 PM

Oh my, I pray that they get it back. How generous of everyone to try & track down its owner.

honeybea 03-17-2012 05:53 AM

Posting this information on UTube would reach more people ....Hope and pray it is found by the family. Bea
