Recovered!
Antique Seven Sisters Quilt
Pat Dillon wanted to be reunited with her antique Seven Sisters quilt. This 74" by 85" quilt was made in the 1880's. The main colors are "old" green and bubble gum pink. It has twenty-five Seven Sisters blocks. It is hand pieced and hand quilted.
On January 12, 2000 Pat hired someone to appraise and repair this quilt. She was told it returned on May 10, 2002 via a shipping company, although it is unclear which company was used, and it was not insured.
Pat ended up hiring a lawyer who gave the appraiser the choice of returning the quilt by a certain deadline or face a lawsuit. On December 2, 2002 Pat reported that her quilt was finally returned!
