Did I miss something? You had a home invasion, and all you tell us is you want your quilt back??? That is either some quilt, or you are a hopelessly addicted quilter! I pray it 'finds' you again. I also hope no one was hurt. Sorry about the lack of tact, I could not help myself. :oops:

Just a thought, you could run an ad on your local Craigs list, offering to buy a (whatever size) purple quilt, to see if the thief answers your ad. If so, call the police to arrange pickup. I saw a guy on TV, who did this, and got his piano back. :thumbup:

:thumbup: Yep, I want my quilt back. I can't stop thinking about it. :-D

I will think about that, thank you for the great suggestion.

I wish I did, but it was made SO long ago.

I really appreciate it!! I could see it popping up locally somewhere, but I don't go many places where I'd find it.

Maybe if you have a pic you could put in on the board and you never know where it could turn up the way people move around and sell things. Good Luck and a gentle hug for you. Sue

Thank you Sue. Hugs

I'm sorry about your precious quilt! What's up with people anyways!
I hope you get it back. I would call your local newspaper and see if they"ll help you. Good luck!

I hate when people do stuff like this. I agree that you should try to duplicate it using some quilt designing software so we all can get a visual. I know how it feels to get something very valuable taken from you. I hope it all works out for you. God Bless.

Ask the local media if they can run a story about the theft. I'm so sorry these precious memories have been stolen.
