I'm so mad at myself.Have fabric ready to cut & rotary cutter blade is dull as dishwater.Time for a new blade.So... just spent an hour looking for the pk of blades Santa brought.
There's way too much stuff, stuffed into very small sewing room,but blades? Nope.....Will have to buy some tomor when I'm in town.Of course,I'll find them when I don't need them.Grrrr at me. Some of this stuff has got to go!

I can understand...I lose stuff in EVERY room! I don't have a dedicated sewing space and my stuff is in 3 rooms...someday I'll get my spare room back and will be much better organized!

Mostly I lose my mind when a pattern will not go as planned. It is frustrating to know you have something and can't find it. When they show up, pin them to your wall. ;)

I have one drawer in my cabinet that just holds little stuff for sewing. I have some little boxes in there so I can seperate the stuff. I have to have when I need it...that doesn't mean that stuff doesn't go missing as I do have Gremlins living in here lol.

Yep, lost a great ruler and rotary cutter and I still have no idea whatsoever where they could be. I had to replace them because it's not like I can just make do without them! I blame my children because I used to have a mind but since I became a stay at home mom, I've lost that too!

I used to work in a doctors office and I swore we had little green men that came in during the night and steal charts. I think they may have followed me home :)

All the time, and yes I agree with babybuoomer, it's the stuff I put up "so I'll know where it is" Then promptly forget where I put it.

That's why I have at least 4 seam rippers in my sewing room and I'm still constantly looking for one.

I think I lost my mind in there a couple of times - I lose fabric - because I don't remember what I have - mostly I lose my whole day because I love to sew and thats ok with me.
