Anniversary Quilt and Texas Independence Star Quilt
On September 20, 2001 two quilts were stolen from the Greater San Antonio Quilt Guild's show at the Live Oak Civic Center in San Antonio. These quilts had been made by GSAQG members and are owned by the guild.
The Anniversary Quilt (left) is 66" by 86.5". It consists of twelve original blocks. The main colors are soft brown, black, blue, and white. One block has a longhorn with the words, "Texas Folklife Festival." Another block has an image of the state of Texas with the letters, "ITC." This quilt was made in 1990.
Texas Independence Star (right) is 87" by 107". The main colors are blue, white, brown, and a blue and brown print. It was made in 1988.
If you have any information about where these quilts are, please contact the Greater San Antonio Quilt Guild through the Lost Quilt Come Home Page.
