Giraffe and Animals
Robin Hansen Buchholz hopes to find a quilt that has been missing since Spring 1993. It was last seen at Tillamook Junior High School during a show-and-tell session. Her daughter brought it to her eighth grade class for a report on pioneers. She took an antique crazy quilt throw, an example of an Hawaiian quilt square in blue and white, an appliqu�d quilt top of a dinosaur sitting on an egg, and an embroidered quilt wall hanging we called my "Giraffe Quilt". This was a quilt that I had dreamed of doing. I woke up one night about 2am in the mid-1980's, after seeing this quilt in a dream. It would use up all the whimsical patterns from cards that my boyfriend in high school had sent me when I was laid up from a bike accident. It had a large giraffe in the middle, surrounded by animals and flowers � all embroidered � mostly in satin stitch. It had the first lines from "All things bright and beautiful!" poem on the quilt.
Please contact Robin at [email protected] if you have this quilt.
