I have the SAME GREMLINS!! I cannot for the life of me find my ducktail applique scissors! I keep all of my "sharp" stuff ( rotary cutters, blades, etc ) in 2 drawers in the sewing room...or if not put away, on top of my Horn cabinet........but have not been able to find those........I know I have had then since our move to Winchester from Ashburn.......am about to go get another pair as as working on applique project and really need them..
