Dorothy Ragland is wondering where her quilt is. She entered her 30″ by 30″ quilt into the Keepsake Quilting’s “Home Sweet Home” contest in 2008. It was supposed to be returned to her in October, but she never received it. They kept saying they were late, but would send it soon. In February 2009, they said they returned it the previous October but couldn’t provide a tracking number.
Dorothy sent off her quilt in March 2008, and then saw a picture on their website, but never saw it again. The quilt features a home with a red roof, a floral wall, and a tan floor. It said “Welcome” on the eave, a white picket fence in front, and a vine with flowers up the side. Inside there were appliques of a baby buggy, a Bible, a teapot, a heart, and a sewing machine with embellishments of a needle, scissors, and buttons that look like spools of thread. There is also a mini quilt being quilted on the machine. The quilt was labeled with a piece of paper pinned to the back. The label had her name, the date, and the words “Home Sweet Home.” This quilt is machine pieced, machine appliqued, and machine quilted.
If you’ve seen a quilt that fits this description, please contact Dorothy at [email protected].
