Have you asked her where she put them? My DH accidentally threw out a bag of fabric that I had been saving that belonged to my deceased DIL. I couldn't emotionally work with them as her scent was still in them and it was still too raw but new I would eventually get to a place where I could. Unfortunately the they were gone by the time I discovered they were missing. Hope you have better luck than I did. Needless to say he never touched anything in my sewing room again. Ann in TN
