I was really afraid this would keep me up all night. Luckily I slept! I have this little case that I normally keep them in. It holds the pieces and has these neat little holders for thread. I took them out of it though because I left it in my truck and it smelled kind of musty. So i had the blocks laying on my ironing table so they could air out. That is the last time I remember seeing them. the case is on the shelf right beside that empty except for my pinking shears. I have no Idea why I put them in there! Those blocks have to be in with some other fabric or something. the thing is I don't have a huge stash. I can go thru it in no time and I've not found them. the only other thing is that maybe they got put up with winter clothes? Not sure I want them bad enough to pull those out yet. Going thru sweaters and stuff when its 100 just doesn't sound fun. Sooner or later they'll turn up I guess.
