    Oh yeah...like the design wall my mother gave me for Christmas. I have moved since then and simply cannot find it!! I have gone through boxes twice looking for it. I know it is in the garage somewhere...

    Saint Anthony is the saint of lost things. Try this little poem.
    Tony Tony look around,
    Something's lost and must be found.

    Good luck!

    luckily (?), i have such a small space where i store my fabric that i must keep everything in order. there are so few places to look that i can find it quickly. as far as my seam ripper, scissors, etc. go, i know they are on the table somewhere, but still can't locate them quickly! so, perhaps more organization might be in order.

    I'm looking for four pieces of material that I'm reasonably sure that I still have some of. I can't find any of them - and I've gone through most of my fabrics at least twice!
    Is it, perhaps, folded up inside another matching fabric? Sometimes, I store stuff "together" then forget.

    I'm glad I'm not the only one that does that.

    I was looking for my invisible thread a few years back. Looked all over and couldn't find it. Forgot about it and then found it later and said to myself, "Oh, that's a good place for it, I'll leave it there." Later I was looking for it again and couldn't remember where this "good" place was.
    A few days later, I was with friends in a restaurant, and told them that I couldn't find my invisible thread. Well, that hit Grace's funny bone, and she giggled for ten minutes. Of course I couldn't find it; it's invisible! I still git a giggle when I think about that.
    I now remember where it is! It's in a small ring box with a top that springs shut.This keeps the thread from unwinding. A good place! ! !
