It's happened again......another quilt instructor has had her car broken into....quilts, teaching materials and in one case even sewing machines were stolen. Both instances happened while they were on the road.
Please visit Karen Combs to see the details....the more eyes we have looking the better. She was visiting a guild in New Braunfels, Tx when her rental car was broken into.
Patsy Thompson is a master at machine quilting and embroidery....she lost an embroidery machine and lots and lots of samples. Though her website doesn't show exactly which ones were stolen.....you can see her style here.
So for anyone who has ever hosted me at their guild......this is why I'm so fussing about leaving my suitcases in your cars when we go to dinner etc. It only takes a few seconds to have one's teaching career severely impacted by criminals.....

I heard about that over the weekend... so awful! I had a round robin quilt go missing in the mail once and I was devastated. This is SO. MUCH. WORSE!
Hope she is able to find her work again.
This is so awful isn't it!! I read on Patsy's blog about her loss and just can't imagine. although, as she said...they probably threw the quilts in a ditch somewhere...can't get money for them!! Terrible isn't it...
