    Where is it hiding?

    I make pincushions using antique tea cups and saucers. I have a favorite that I use by my sewing machine. Last week when I got home from teaching a quilting class, I carried it into the house and put it down. Now I can not find it anywhere! Not kidding! As it is only DH and puppy living with me, we have looked and looked and looked. Can anyone suggest where this tea cup pincushion could have hidden?!? Suggestions wanted!

    I heard that if you want to find something you lost, quit looking for it. Of course, that hasn't help me find a quilt top and a ruler in my sewing room. They both are there somewhere.

    I do one of two things when this happens to me. I walk back into the house the way I did that day. This may help to refresh your memory. The other thing I do, is to fall asleep thinking about it. I wake up in the morning and it's the first thing on my mind. I can walk right to it. I need a well rested brain to make up for the tired one. I like PenniF's way of thinking, too. One of my friend's found her mail on the water heater, downstairs, once. She had no clue how it got there. Good luck! I sure hope you find it!

    In the cup cupboard, dishwasher, fridge (inside or on top), in your fabric that you took to class, beside your keys....that's all I can think of right now.

    Look in the next place you went after you thought you put it down. I am always finding my car keys in the kitchen or bathroom, the first place I headed after I dropped my hand bag.

    Doesn't this make you crazy! It happens to me more then I care to admit. When you find it you'll say Now I remember! I have misplaced my grandmother's hand sewn hexagon quilt. I know where I put it last but it's not there now. I keep saying it's misplaced because to think someone took it would hurt too much.
    Got fabric?
