Seven Quilts Stolen From A Van
Mary Sorensen has suffered the loss of seven of her original appliqued quilts. They were in a van at the Extended Stay America Nashville Airport Hotel in Nashville, Tennessee. On July 29, 2002 there was a random break-in. It is believed the thief was looking for items to sell and was not someone specifically looking for quilts. It is possible they were dumped or sold at a flea market. Please help Mary by watching for these quilts on Ebay or anywhere quilts might be sold. All of the quilts are hand pieced, hand appliqued and hand quilted (except one).
