Does anyone know the name of this Nautica quilt (or comforter... not sure)? http://i36.tinypic.com/2nhgx9j.jpg My niece decided to use a permanent marker and scribble over part of the bedding. This Nautica quilt belongs to my mom who is on vacation. I need to know the name of the quilt so I can find it online or at some store before my mom returns. For the sake of keeping this post astrology-related, my mom is a Scorpio who does not tolerate mistakes under any circumstances.

The brand is Nautica. But I don't know the name of the quilt. For instance, some Nautica quilts are called Summerland or Bridgewater. I need to know the name so I can search for it online. So far I've been searching randomly based on images alone and I'm not having much luck.IP: Logged |

Sweet if all else fails there is a miracle....and I mean miracle product called "Spray on Oxy Magic "that will remove it. I had cream carpets installed (3 days new) and when the tv was delivered a ball point pen that was broken had stuck to the box. The delivery men dragged it across the lounge in a long thick inky stripe culminating in a squashed blue mess at the end. I used this stuff and I swear you would never have known anything had happened."It's a Xmas miracle!!! Spray on Oxy Magic made by Stain Devil Mother will never know!!! IP: Logged |

lol yay I got it! Cheers for the cheers GemGemGem Astra, quote: You just saved me from a Scorpio's wrath! *gives one million hugs*
I'm very Wonder Woman like that jk Glad to help. Scorpios pick up on everything though so she may still notice it's new - but *fingers crossed* she doesn't lol MVM, I have lots of Virgos in my family and I often joke around that the attention to detail - must've rubbed of on me.
It's strange astrologically, because with the Pisces Mercury/Jupiter in the 10th, one would think I'd lack the focus. IP: Logged |

Well you have nothing to lose Astra. Coral is wonderful tracking it down but.... Your mother will notice if you buy a new quilt. She will throw up her hands in horror and shriek "That's not my quilt! What have you done with my quilt!" So you will have to confess anyway otherwise Mother will think that not only are you a liar but a mucky one to boot!So armed with the spray I would do a "Stand back chaps, I'm going in" Spray along stain. Rub in. Wait a few minutes, apply some more and then begin to scrub. Whats the worst? You will end up with a. A quilt with black scribble marks b. A quilt with black scrub marks c. Your mothers quilt with no discernible marks, restored to it's former glory and peace will reign once more And you'll save a zillion bucks! It has to be that brand though. Accept no substitute If all that fails revert to Plan A! IP: Logged |

I'd be more open to tell your mom the truth followed by I found an exact replacment or a way to get rid of the marks.something a long the lines of "mom, I found a site online that sells a blanket set just like the one in your bedroom, unfortunitly permanent marker stains got all over your quilt. But don't worry I can have it replaced". You know good news followed by bad news. Better yet say something good followed by the bad news of her quilt. That way your not lying to her and showing her you care, I thought if you can show a scorpio you care they'll go easier on you. I think I'd fear a Capircorns male wraph more then a scorpio females/males wrapth. I've had both wraphs and a capircorn seams to be more devestating and harder to counter then a scorpio. I mean right now your already countering your moms scorpio wraph.

Yes that is completely the right thing to do! The truth followed by the solution. You could still try and scrub first! Well done 3b!
