Yellow Sapphire

Mija Fiber Art (Libby & Jim Mijanovich) are searching "Yellow Sapphire," their original quilt which is now owned by Jim Privette. This quilt was last seen at 60 North Market St. Condominiums, Asheville, North Carolina. It was stolen the week of December 8, possibly by someone in a construction crew. The clubroom was being furnished for an open house while the building is still under construction.

This 2007 quilt is 38" wide by 23" high. The quilt is stretched and mounted onto a stretcher frame with a foam core backing, and then displayed in a walnut shadowbox frame. The piece after framing measres 43" by 29" by 1-1/2" deep. The main colors are yellow, cream, gold, burgundy, sage, and hunter green. It is machine pieced vintage cotton clothing, and it is machine quilted with metallic thread. There are two labels on the back of the foam core. One is a shirt pocket with the Mija company name, the name of the piece, and the date made. The shirt pocket label is glued to the foam core. The second label is a a 2" by 4" sticky label with the business name and contact information, name of the piece, date made, content and care instructions.

Please contact Mija Fiber Art (http://www.mijafiberart.com) at [email protected] if you have any information regarding this quilt.
