    If you have lost your mind you are in good company! I wonder that as organized as I am now I still can't locate a Jinny Beyer quilt kit that I bought a few years ago. It was on my to do list, its time has come to be made and I can't find it! Frustrating!

    Look inside the dresser drawers. You could have accidentally picked it up with a pile of laundry and put it in the drawer.

    Fabric Lover.....I found your muslin its on my dining room table all washed and dried and now it needs ironing. LOL
    Sure hope you find it soon.

    I just found two batches of quilt binding AND the tie dye T-shirt fabric I have looked for for TWO YEARS. I am still organizing and de-stashing, and decided to just quickly look through the suiting/wool/coat lining tote to be certain nothing else was lurking there...STILL have no idea how they got in there--must have laid them down and put stuff on top, so don't give up yet...

    I lost my rotary cutter for seven months--until the week after I bought a new one. Had put it up when grandson came--and had hidden it WELL behind some books up on office shelf. How did I find it? The cat was exploring and knocked everything off the shelf.

    I lost a quilted vest WIP for three years--just found that last week----- in the bottom of the china hutch?????? Don't ask--cause I do not have a CLUE how it got there!

    Is it in the air, or something in the water?????

    And I am still looking for the cell phone I laid down yesterday when I returned from the quilt show.....


    We need HELLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP............

    I have done that with stuff I have sold...that is scarry, when I know I had it and then when someone buys it - it seems to have taken a hike! Ususlly it turns up in a wrong place, a few times over the years - never saw it again. Makes me think I am too old!

    Someone posted to pray to St Anthony. Very good idea. This is my prayer to St Anthony when I'm 'Losing my mind'

    Prayer to St Anthony patron saint of lost things

    Tony, Tony do your stuff

    I can so relate to this! And we all know about buying the fabric again, then finding it!
