Danielle Green is hoping someone can help her locate an Hour Glass quilt that she made for Mary Novetzke. The nursing home said it was sent to be cleaned by Shippleys in Sioux City, Iowa, but it never returned. It was last seen on June 20, 2016 at the Dow Rummel Retirement Village, Allen wing.
The quilt is about 75″ by 80″. It was made during 2008-2009. It is a scrappy quilt with a bright yellow border. It features an assortment of fabrics including red teddy bears, birds, flowers, and M&M candy fabric. The backing is a blue floral. This quilt is machine pieced and machine quilted. It has a label that says, “To Mary Novetzke / May this quilt comfort you when we are far apart. / Love your daughter, Danielle / Made in Belgium.” The label is on a triangle of fabric sewn into a back corner.
Danielle writes, “My mother has little to comfort her in the nursing home. This quilt was a source of warmth and happiness for her.” If you can help in the recovery of this quilt, please contact Danielle at [email protected].
