I made this lovely quilt with 7 blocks on point and lavender flowers in eac. After much thought I decided on the binding and then took the quilt top down off the design wall, nicely folded it, and laid it down thinking "I will just put it here!"

OK - two days later - now I can't find it. So, I am sharing my woe with the only people I know will sympathize with me! The quilt board members. I loved making those appliques in the blocks - lovely flowers made with batiks shaded with purples and lavenders.

So, after about 6 times going thru every shelf and drawer in my sewing room, and looking in lots of other places outside the room, I gave up and turned it over to God. He will put it in my sight!

So, I am waiting...........!! Patiently.......

Did you lay it down and it got covered by something? I did that once and forgot what it looked like and hunted for days and it was right where I left it. Looking for wrong colors. sign of old age?

I have not done that with a quilt top, but did that same thing with a pattern to the quilt that I already started. And a long ruler for cutting WOFs. The pattern showed up a day or two later, but still have not found the ruler. Luckily, I had another. Your top will show up when you least expect it. ;)

I have turned everything over ten times it seems, and inside and outside, too. Thanks for ideas

everything else except a quilt top.

Get someone else to look, they'll find it in two minutes or less! Somehow we get "blinded" and just cant' see what's right in front of us.

Do fish swim?lol I don't lose things, I just misplace them in "safe" places. Hope it appears soon.

Wrapped with another top!! Under the batting!! Under the backing fabric!! It will reappear (smile).

yup- seems to be the story of my life!
i've lost as many completed quilts- will have some one come to see one- geesh- can not find it- or birthday comes along---and now- i can not find the quilt i made for the occassion-
it's a terrible thing...but sooner or later they always show back up ;)

It is probably next to the roll of painters tape that I had in my hand this afternoon.

I did find a quilt top that was lost months and months ago during the search.
