    Default It really happened

    I asked for help with directions for a tote bag from The Creative Thimble last week because I had lost mine. One kind lady told me where to order another one and Dunster implied I'd find it when I bought a new one IT actually happened. The new pattern arrived yesterday and last night I found the original in the bag with the interfacing I had bought at Joans. I had cut out the main and contrast fab went to buy interfacing then life took over.; unexpected house guest etc. . when I got back to it couldn't find directions until I got out the Joans bag last night. If we can't laugh at ourselves who can we laugh at

    Just glad you found it. This happens to me all the time now that I'm retired..... I guess I was more organized when I worked.... had to know where things were. And of course, the brain getting older doesn't help much either.

    As soon as I buy something to replace something that has gone MIA, it shows up. It is better to laugh than to cry.

    LOL! Of course, because after you find it you stop looking!

    I knew it, I knew it, I knew it! I keep telling myself, it (whatever is lost) has to be somewhere. Everything is somewhere...

    That is how I acquired 3 pair of the same scissors! At least you found it -- too late but oh well!

    Keep the pattern as a reminder to never give up!

    I'm missing some blocks that I need to finish and I know that if I cut new fabric for new blocks that I for sure will find them. I just hate that, haha.
