Yes, I'm not only a quilter but also a retired USPS worker having delivered hundreds of parcels.
Sorry, just had to vent. :)
Nette,
Boy, sometimes this forum can get like playing the old gossip game when we were kids! We used to get in a long line and start a simple story and whisper it to the kid next to you...then he to the next, and by the time it got to the last kid, it was no where near the original lines.
So, To all that are still reading this thread:

1. I MIS-ADDRESSED THE PACKAGE, SO I ALONE AM RESPONSIBLE FOR THE LATE ARRIVAL TO SARA.

2. I USED USPS AND DO NOT FAULT THEM FOR WHERE IT WAS DELIVERED (THO I DON'T KNOW WHERE THAT WAS)

3. I AM GRATEFUL, NOT ANNOYED, AT THE PERSON WHO GOT IT DELIVERED TO THEM AND SAW THAT IT GOT TO MY DGG SARA.

Moral of this story, verify addresses, pay the extra for tracking and signature.
END OF STORY
and thanks for being concerned! as you saw by the video, All's well that ends well!

Aaawww... Thanks for posting this wonderful video!
Makes all the stressing and worry worthwhile, doesn't it?
I'm so happy that your lovely quilt found it's home.

I've learned the hard way, ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS getting a tracking number.

Thank God people were praying for you and He was looking out for your beloved. Just look for the lesson in everything. It's there.

We've had stuff like that happen before! Sometimes the mailman will "make it disappear". Your daughter could just knock on the door of the address it was supposedly delivered to and ask about it.

Made that same same wavy quilt last year. What did you use to make it sparkly? Is it the quilting thread?

I will say a prayer for you, and I hope they will do the right thing. God bless.
