I lose my new fabric ALL the time! Don't feel bad. I know I have it, but...where?

Now, that's just too darned organized for me! ;)

Good luck, I lost my set of bias tape tools for 4 months once...

She said she remembered washing it, ironing it and folding it. Maybe the fabric store came and reposessed it.

I love it when I lose something while sitting at my desk. I know that I have not moved from the spot, but still can't find my (pen, scissors, the pattern, take your pick) very frustrating!

Well, I decided to give the big search a rest and did some household chores...laundry, ironing, tidying up the guest bedroom....all with the thought that perhaps, just perhaps, the missing fabric would show up. No such luck! I have some nice tone-on-tone green fabric that will work for my project so I'll use that. Maybe the dark green fabric will show up in time for Christmas projects!

I'm convinced it's a conspiracy to make us buy more dark green fabric!

Today I lost a napkin between the washer and dryer. It is part of a placemat/napkin set I'm donating to a charity auction. Looked through the washer and dryer 3 times, checked all the clothes (I thought). Rechecked the clothes again and found it stuck in the sleeve of a shirt. Thought for sure I'd lost my mind.
