Sandy Tuzinski shipped this quilt to her nephew for his wedding. The quilt was shipped on July 16, 2015 from Bloomington, Minnesota to Independence, Oregon. It was shipped in a plain, brown, rectangular box with signature confirmation, but it was never delivered. Her nephew and his bride have now moved to Colorado, but they never received their quilt, nor was it forwarded to them.
Four months later, Sandy wrote, “I have wonderful news that the wedding quilt for my nephew and his bride has returned home to me!!! The outside of the box was really beat up but the quilt was snug as a bug inside, still wrapped in the gift bag! I was so thrilled and wanted you to know right away. Thank you for all you do to help so many! Doing a Snoopy dance here in Minnesota!”
This twin-size quilt is made with raw-edge, frayed appliqué. The main colors are reds, creams, and pinks. Some of the fabrics have musical notes or bunnies with musical instruments.
The quilt has a label which says,
Wishing you
A house full of sunshine,
Two hearts full of cheer,
Love that grows deeper,
Each day of the year.
From an old Welsh Blessing
A Wedding Keepsake for
Nick and Rachael
Made by:
Auntie Sue and Auntie Sandy
The label was hand written on a piece of fabric and hand appliquéd to a back corner.
