I know about the dog thing. I have a 7 lb. puppy that does the same thing.

If it's sort of rose colored, it's in my holiday bin! lol

LOL!! Give it back!!

Maybe 6 or so years ago, I found some very pretty rose/red pointsettia fabric at Hobby Lobby (I think). I bought a bunch of it because I liked it so much. It's bee used a lot of places----and the piece is getting very very short.

This just happened to me. For 2 weeks I was looking for 2 receipts to turn into the guild, they where on the china cabinet. Could not believe my eyes.

I Can't Find It! is my middle name! I'm always buying two and three of something because when I mislay it somewhere I don't want to waste the time looking for it ( and usually not finding it) so I run out and get another. I need an organizer!!

Must be a common ailment :lol: cause I have been turning my place upside looking for some backing fabric which i know I have yet can't find. If I don't find it soon I will have to put this project away until I do find it. At the moment it doesn't look like I will be completing this project anytime soon so it may just become my very first WIP yet :roll:

I can totally relate to your misplacement. Right now I'm looking for a bia tape folder holder thingie. I have 4 in different wideths and the one I need I can't find. It's in my mess somewhere. So I'm making the size of tape the old fashioned way, piece of cardboard pinned down on the ironing board as I pull "miles and miles" of tape and iron the folds down couple inches at a time. I'll probably find the size I'm looking for after I get this color of tape I need all done.

I have some of those folder things that I never use since I discovered just folding the fabric in half and folding over and stitching; much easier than the old fold to the middle stuff.

Join the club!!! recently I was teling my DD about this really cool fabric that I was going to add to my french braid quilt (if only I could find it) I spent two days looking for it, then gave up and use something almost as nice. Then while visiting my DS I saw the fabric in a quilt I made for him a year ago. Boy is my face RED. That either proves that I have too much fabric, or make too many quilts. :)
