Makes me furious! They'll probably dump all the stuff...what a waste. It means nothing to them if they can't sell or hock it. Hopefully her things will be found.

How sad for her to lose all her work. I sure hope the police find the trailer and get everything back unharmed.

Central Ohio Quilter

Can you give us a description of the trailer and a license plate number? The thieves are not likely to keep the trailer very close to where they stole it from.

We here on this board are a fairly large group of people from around the country. Perhaps someone here may happen to spot the trailer and notify their local police department.

Please let us see if we can help! Give us a description what to look for!

Whether insured or not this would still be devastating! Sure hope they catch the crook!

That is devastating. That poor woman. Hope they find the culprit and punish him/her harshly. But I'm afraid that itis like BellaBoo said "Not much done to criminals anymore". Let's hope for the best.

hopefully she had insurance. Next how do you not find a trailer, they are pretty big and with word of mouth someone will surely find it. Keeping fingers crossed that they find it with everything still in it.

That is so sad. I am hoping that she recovers her things. I wouldn't think that they would be easy to sell. Hopefully the police will watch for ads trying to sell them. I have my doubts that that will happen. I wonder if the insurance will cover the value of the quilts. I think it will only cover the cost of materials not the labor.

Bet they thought they was stealing something other than quilting items!! Hope they will put it aside so that someone can find them and notify the police and have them returned to her....

Judging from the writeup it doesn't appear that she had insurance. Most insurance companies won't insure anything but the trailer since it's not secured. They won't insure the contents (ask me how I know). I hope she gets her things back but unfortunately the theives probably just dumped the contents somewhere. They wanted the trailer not what was in it.

Know the Shallotte, NC area well. Close to some of the best beaches around. Dependent on tourist business, and in this economy many folks have been very hard hit. Hope this story has a happy ending. Thanks for posting it.
