You mean it was taken apart and toted to someone's home? I have never heard of this. Seems the LA frame would wear out with all that taking and putting back together. I'm guilty of not remembering who I loaned a book or ruler to but those are easily replaced.

Quilts are frequently stolen out of cars, enroute in the mail or out of suitcases on the airport. I always cover any quilts with an old dark blue sheet when they are in the car.
