Jackie Briggs wonders if anyone found her long-lost quilt. It was made by her grandmother or possibly great-grandmother. She last saw it in 1981 in Colorado. It was left in a chest which her father had made. There was a burlap covering, and other momentos were in the chest including items from her wedding and an old camera. It was left behind at a friend’s house when she had to move, but they do not remember what happened to the chest.

The quilt is tan on one side and brown on the other. Autumn-colored leaves are on the tan side. It is approximately full-size. It is hand stitched with a diamond pattern and the year 1937 or possibly 1837 is embroidered in a corner with the name. It had won a blue ribbon in the LA Fair.

If you found this quilt, please contact Jackie at jackiebrn@comcast.net.
