I am hoping you find it. I lost one piece (9 yds) and it was someone else's fabric! Luckily it was a line I could find so I replaced it. I am still hoing to find it some day!

You were lucky that you could still replace it!

I usually "lose" rulers, pencils, and seam rippers. One minute it'll be in my hand . . . then it's suddenly gone!

I almost suggested you post a picture of the missing fabric . . . then it dawned on me that you can't take a picture of something you can't find. DUH!

I don't often misplace things, but when I can't find something I'm sure I still have, I try to remember what I was doing the last time I saw it....where I was, what I was working on, that kind of thing. The system works pretty well for me. I've always been 'the finder' for my kid, spouse, coworkers, bosses....

And isn't it true, we always find them in the LAST place we look? DUH

That's the story of my life...and not just fabric!

I understand your pain. I've been slowly reorganizing my sewing room, and while things are certainly neater they are also harder to find.

I'm looking for four pieces of material that I'm reasonably sure that I still have some of. I can't find any of them - and I've gone through most of my fabrics at least twice!
Always! I'm currently looking for a ruler and a small cutting mat. If you find them among your things let me know and I'll keep an eye out for your fabric.

Yep! spent a couple days last week looking for my 12 1/2" square. It was right in front of me, under some fabric i swear i picked up-more than once. Gremlins at work, perhaps??
