Such a kind person to go to the trouble to search out the owner. Wouldn't it be nice for the owner to document the story and include it when the quilt is passed down.
I love this story!!!!!

i put the name/address on the inside of all packages sent out..
if the packge gets lost or damaged, hopefully they will see the 3x5 card inside with all the shipping info. i do this for swaps too..
Great story! thanks for sharing!

With all the automation, the loose card may float away in a different direction. I am going to baste a label on that can be easily removed by the owner.
