It drives me nuts when I loose things espically when I havent moved. Usually turns up as soon as you give up.
I sure hope yours turns up soon.

I agree with everyone, I am to make a challenge quilt. I had the pattern for the applique and do you think I could find it. After1 week of looking all over, it appears in the project box that I had it last. Funny how the mind is the first to go. :)

Mine is usually under some fabric somewhere or on the floor.

Yes I usually find them in a kids room moonlighting as a doll blanket. My scissors seem to grow legs and walk away also!

I have this personal theory about how the dryer creates this wormhole vortex that sucks socks and other things through it... :P

We had that too! My 17 yr old son who is very fit and trim, size 32x32 pants found a pair of size 54 swim trunks in his room! No one and I mean no one in our family wears that size! Where did they come from? Don't know, but had some fun with them.

I understand! Fabric doesn't make any sound when it falls.

Yesterday I lost two little pieces. They might have stuck to my clothes and fell off into the 'john'. But for sure they are not on my kitchen floor or table. I sew on the table. I gave up on finding the fabric.

P.S. Dear St. Anthony Please come around, something is lost and can't be found. works about 99% of the time.
