Quilt missing after Houston Quilt Show
I just read this in two places, facebook and MyQuiltSpace.com and thought I would post it here as well - perhaps we can help. This quilt is missing.
I’m hoping you can post this information and picture on the on-line quilt group you’re with. I just found out that my “Really ‘Wild’ Flowers! Second Season” quilt went missing the day after the Houston show and I’m devastated and heart-broken beyond words. I’m offering a cash reward for its safe return, no questions asked. I would just like to have my quilt back home. The size is 62” x 64.5”.
Please urge each of the gals to send the information out to their own personal contacts as well if you would.
Thank you so much,
~ Sharon

That is a beautiful quilt and one that would be easily recognizable if one was to see it somewhere. I received a notice from someone on line earlier today, can't remember who it was, so the word is getting out. I too can't figure out how this can happen, why would someone do that? I hope it isn't a quilter. I have heard people talking about people stealing at the shows and shops and some are quilters. I really don't like to think that happens but it surely does, so sad.

I read the artical, and I emailed the local TV show here in Houston, and told them what happened. I hope they air it on TV, and she can find her quilt again. I think that is terrible, that someone would take that.

Some friends of mine that have co-authored some books and several patterns lost a box of 5 or 6 quilts after the Houston quilt show a couple of years ago. They never did get them back. I had a quilt stolen from me that was on display at a store. It doesn't matter if it is 1 quilt or 6 quilts it is devistating to have someone steal from you. I hope she gets her quilt back it is a beautiful.
