It was made with my grandmothers clothes after she passed away and I would love to have it back someday, so out of desparation Im asking everyone to keep an eye open for it. I doubt there is another quilt out there like it, its not that attractive, but its precious to me.

If you've seen it anywhere in Oklahoma/ NW OK, or OKC...please let me know. Thank you for reading!

Sorry about your lose, I know I would be so hurt if I lost my Mom's quilt. I sent all of my Oklahoma e mail buddies and family to watch out for your quilt. you might want to put up a note at all the thrift stores and goodwills maybe if it's donated maybe they will let you know. I'll keep you in my thoughts

This is a reminder to be sure to take a photo of all your quilts as you do them.(or receive them) I keep copies of my quilts on a disk at my insurance company's office. I don't suppose every office does this but mine does, along with an inventory of "stuff" so if the worst ever happens they have everything listed.

So sorry to hear about your stolen quilt. I know you said you have no picture. Just an idea, would you have a picture of someone or something that may have been standing next to the quilt when you took their picture and the quilt would be in the background. Maybe a pet picture, family member, friends, etc.

That's the lowest of the lows....hope you find it and it's just fine!

I would let all the Goodwills and donation places know you had it stolen so if it shows up. Maybe a hand drawing would be somewhat helpful.
