Ok, now that you found that... could you come here and find my extra bobbin case for my Bernina. It use to be in the sewing machine table drawer. I don't remember moving it, but.. now that I need it.. I can't find it. HELP.. I know if I buy a new one... I will find it the next day.

yeah I do that too. I got to the point when I couldn't remember which pocket I put the cell phone in that I put a long black shoelace throught the little piece on the end and hung that sucker around my neck. NOW I have not lost it for one day. A funny thing too, the earpiece I had for it kept losing charge and I would be talking and all of sudden dead. I put it on speaker phone and can hear perfectly and do my work at the same time. Voila!!!! I have lots of other "lost" items too that I find when I look for something else.

Couple weeks ago, after finishing my last project, I decided to clean my sewing machine. I took the throat plate off, removed the bobbin dealie, cleaned in, around, & underneath. Went to put it all back together & could not find the bobbin-thing. My husband & searched everywhere, even the garbage--3 times!

Still baffled I put everything away. Until today. Determined to solve the mystery I searched again. Take a look at what I found.

Don't you just hate it when that happens. I lose things all the time. As my mama always says "If it had been a snake it would have bit you". Right under your nose.

It was right there in the machine where it belongs!!!!!!!!!

I'm still trying to find the Sam's receipt I walked in the door with last night and lost before I wrote the amout down. I feel your pain.

I know how you feel. I lost my 1*6 ruler. Looked and looked and could not find it. Bought a new one. When I sat down at my desk the next day to check my email. There is was, next to the mouse! My computer is in another room from the sewing room and I never looked there.
