Thanks, I will list it on Quilter's Cache. I have already put it up on LostQuilt.com.

I am so thankful for the board - I have learned lots, and everyone here is so helpful. My fingers are crossed that Kaaterskill will return home soon.

what a gorgeous quilt!! What does the UPS tracking say? THey are usually good about tracking it at each step of the way.

Hope it was insured for a lot, not that money can ever replace it,but I think they do take more care with insured packages.

Barb, it was never scanned in by UPS. The driver remembers picking up the package, but that's all. It's a mystery.

It's insured, but it's not about the money. I feel like it's part of me that's missing, and there's no way that money is going to make me feel better about that.

So sorry that your quilt went missing. I do hope it shows up before the show. It is so sad when people can't be honnest about things.

I'm heartsick for you. I can't imagine the pain of losing one of my 'babies'. I pray that somehow its returned to you.

OMG Janet. I am just heart sick for you. I can imagine the helplessness and devastation you must be feeling at this beauty being lost.

The driver remembers picking it up but he didn't scan it right then and there? Don't they have those hand held scanners to scan in packages? This is just unbelievable. I sure hope Andrea's contact can help.

Sending prayers that this quilt is found.

Why would you "hate to file a claim", I think that is the only way to have them seriously looking for it.

I don't want to file a claim because I don't want them to stop looking for it. If they pay the claim, that's it. I want the quilt back, preferably in one piece.

It may very well be that the only way to get it back it to file a claim, but I won't do that until every other option has been exhausted.

Oh, how awful.
I agree with the others, UPS should do a lot more to find it, this is ridiculous.

And it's a gorgeous quilt, beautiful.
I'm keeping all my fingers crossed they'll find it for you.

Janet, I am so sorry that this has happened, how awful. I can't believe that UPS would take this so lightly. Remember the squeaky wheel gets the grease. BellaBoo had a great suggestion. Get the word out to local news stations and newspapers.

Your quilt is gorgeous! I hope it is found SOON!
