We were in a car wreck in 1994 and the car was filled with quilts. When we picked up our belongings from the junkyard (car was totaled) I felt something was missing. Sure enough when we got home and opened all the bags, one quilt was missing. Fortunately it was the simplest, cheapest quilt we had made.

I always embroider my quilting label on the back side of my quilts before the finish quilting is done. I do this with my embroidery machine. I make most of my quilts as gifts so the label includes the name of the receipent, my name & the date. This pretty much prevents them from being stolen.

Nothing is sacred. I am so sorry that this beautiful quilt has been stolen. I hope it is returned soon.

Every quilter in the surrounding area should watch Craigs List & ebay. Beautiful quilt and easily identified.

I had a car stolen several years ago. I could not deal with it and handed the problem over to God. Two years later the car was found in Daytona Beach Florida and I drove down and brought it back home. It was stolen a day before mothers day and retrieved 2 weeks after mothers day, but 2 years apart.

She was more upset about the quilt than all the other items combined. And the thief probably didn't know that the quilt was of value. Stupid thief.
How sad but then one can't explain what people value these days... |
