    This quilt was made by a 9 year old? The future of quilting is certainly in good hands. This is a beautiful quilt and story.

    Ok HisPatchwork, find mine for me. My first husband took my grandmothers quilt hunting with him and laid it on top of his car and it blew off. This happened in Mindocino Co. CA. in around 1965 give or take a couple of years. It was made from aold fabrics.

    I posted the one I found on www.lostquilts.com I would also post it in the grocery store, if was recently lost. Especially if you have a picture. If it was stolen, maybe someone that sees it will recognize it and contact you. I forgot one at the laundry mat years ago and they said it was never turned in. I believe it was stolen. It was a small afghan I crocheted. It had been near closing and there was an attendant.
    All is see on that site is adds for websites, am I looking in the wrong place? My neice lost her quilt I made her.
