I came across this story about a lost quilt during a tornado. I thought you'd all appreciate it since it points out the importance of quilts.

How sad that they were killed! Hope this gives the family some ...well...comfort.

Sweet story. I'm glad the quilt made its way back to the family. Another reason to label quilts.

Couldn't help but notice this line.


Netty's mother, knitted a beautiful quilt adorned with owls.
But I'll forgive him since he's a sports writer. And he made the effort to get the quilt back where it belonged.
