Recovered!
In Remembrance of Nanny
On December 17, 2002 Nancy Rink sent her quilt, In Remembrance of Nanny, to the Prairie Guild Quilt Show in Oklahoma. Unfortunately, the US Postal Service delivered the quilt late so it was refused by a member of the guild (which is the guild's policy). On the return trip, it took several more weeks before the quilt was finally returned to Nancy in mid February.
Nancy comments, "I am pleased to say it is now safely home. Even with a tracking number, all the post office could tell me was that it had not reaced its destination. Never again will I use them to send my quilts."
The 71" by 76" quilt is an original design. It is a nine block quilt with floral applique on a blue/black background. The quilt uses a Nancy Crow fruit stripe, fabrics from P&B Frostings line. It is hand appliqued and machine quilted. It was featured in Quilter's Newsletter Magazine on the "Photo Finish" page.
