Did you try looking in a different room? Maybe you remember putting it in a room...just not your sewing room?

They're probably with some of my stuff :) Spent a lot of time the other day rolling around my room looking for the piece I was working on. Finally found it on the back of my rolling chair!

I did this yesterday and many times before. I have stacks of patterns and fabric and what have you stacked all over my sewing room. Somehow my new purchases end up at the bottom of one of these piles. Don't know why !!!
You will find it when you give up and start something else. Good luck.

Not exactly the same, but had to find some files today and had to go into 3 files cabinets to find them

Hello, Bella!
Appeared your accessory?
Sure you were the goblins!
You should take a glass and place it face down while saying: "Goblins ... you in this glass prison until my rule!" Just once you see your lost object ... can release the goblin turning your glass! (Insurance will soon ... they are free beings, mischievous .. but do not like being locked up!)
Works for me! :thumbup:
Hahaha!
A big hug for you! :D

Ah, the gremlins have moved into your place! So glad they left here!!! :-) Always spend way too much time looking for things I know I put "right there!"

I swear my folks house has a gremlin that likes to move things. I was down in the basement one day to get a bag of sugar. I know where it is, it's always in the same place. It wasn't there!! Frustrated, I turn around and walk out of that side of the basement and say, "PUT IT BACK!!"

Walk back into the room, there it is, where it should be!!

I was all set to start making the pattern, I guess I will be deep cleaning my sewing room instead. :-(

Go back to your car and look in it. Also check the garbage, maybe someone (???i) threw it away.

Deep cleaning...isn't that illegal??? :-)

Totally illegal I cringe and shudder at what the penalty would be for such an act
