So I got a customer's wall quilt that I need to quilt, do you think I can find that small hoop? NO - I tore apart the sewing room, found I have FOUR large oval hoops and 3 round ones, no sign of the one I want. Looked under and behind all the furniture, looked everywhere I could think of. We are talking about a 4 room, 700 sq. ft. house, not like there are a lot of places it could hide.
I am convinced that Emily, our resident spirit, is hiding it on me. She is rather mischievous.

My husband asked me if I would like to move to have a bigger sewing room. I looked at him as if he was crazy. I have a sewing "nook" and still manage to loose things. I can't imagine boxing up all my stuff and moving it to a new location. I know I would go crazy looking for my things later. Now if he offered to get me a long arm machine to go in the new house. I'm out of here!

One thing about losing something, you get to see how much dust there is in all the nooks and crannies in your house.
