Oh my , i am so sorry. I went through that last year. tons of things lost, broken, ruined. No quilts missing that i know of but bedding and such for sure. I may never know all that is gone. found some in wrong rooms, so that was good. I do so hope someone sees this and can help. There is no excuse for shoddy work from anyone!

So sad. We will be on the look out., Do you have any other pictures?

After having just gone thru a move (very stressful but so far, nothing lost--just misplaced, Who would put a box labeled 'pantry' in a bedroom??) I am so sorry for your horrible experience. If the moving company is unable to rectify the situation, I would certainly be reporting them to the Better Business Bureau. I would also be naming names when talking about the experience.

Oh--this makes me want to cry! Do you mind it I print out your information and post on the message board (assuming there is one) at the KCRegional Quilt Fest in O.P. KS in 2 weeks? you never know who might know something.

This is a popular web site for quilters-- maybe you can ask to have your situation posted on their web site. http://www.quilterscache.com/MISSINGQUILTS.html Maybe someone would notice your photo and offer a lead on your missing boxes.

Oh for sure! publicity goes both ways and word of mouth is a good form of publicity also!!!

What a shame! I'm sorry and I do hope your quilts turn up. Thanks for posting so we can keep an eye out.

What an unfortunate loss...but I have heard a few stories about missing items by moving companies. I'm afraid it happens quite often. When I moved from California to Maine, I transported my grandmother's china and a few sentimental (irreplaceable) items in my own car rather than on the moving truck because of similar stories.

I hope your quilt(s) miraculously show up.

i do not mind...and appreciate the help in getting the word out...the quilt top is large - at least 86x98...its bonnie hunters pattern but the pumpkin fabric is what is noticeable...also the black is not a solid, but has very faint pattern that cant be seen until you get up close...i still have the binding made!!!...i hope finding this leads to my other boxes being found...THANK YOU....
