Default lost hug quilt

I'm so upset!

I made a hug quilt for someone in a site I'm active in. The post office lost
it.

No, it wasn't insured. No tracking. I know. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Anyway, it's no good to anyone else but the intended recipient but just in
case it does turn up somewhere, I posted photos of the blocks and the
finished quilt at http://photos.yahoo.com/sesesi, just click on cockatoo's
hug quilt to see them

:-((((

I would be upset, too! That's awful! Hope it turns up someplace, somehow.

{{{{cyber hugs}}}} from down here. What a terrible shame. I'm sure the
person will understand. Perhaps make up a special scrapbook from the photos
and hope and pray that the quilt actually turns up one day.

How sad, Marijke! With any luck at all, it will turn up soon. I'll keep
my fingers crossed for you.

Marijke,
Keep your fingers crossed. One of our Assymetric RR got lost for about 5
weeks. It was found at the post office in the state and city it was sent
to...We did a group fingers crossed and find it's way to the next round and
it showed up. Hope your quilt is as lucky to find it's way home.
