I have the same problem. I am thinking of putting lists of contents on all my storage units. I surprise myself all the time with "new" finds of things I have bought but forgotten about. :o)

I have the same problem -- you should see what my clean sewing room looks like because I am trying to find a piece of fabric that I put somewhere that I could easily find it. Of course, that is the only thing I want to work on right now -- sigh.

I am currently looking for: 1 patriotic jelly roll, 1 Lil Twister Ruler, 1 throat plate for my grandmother's vintage Singer, 1 bag of fat quarters bought specifically for my DGD little ponies quilt and a piece of fabric bought to applique sock monkies. If anybody finds any of my things, please let me know! That's what I get for cleaning up and organizing my stuff and stash so I could find it!!!!! I'm sure all of the above will turn up when I stop looking. LOL

I can so relate! So frustrating...and the time wasted searching really annoys me! Oh well, we're not alone.

Lol I've done that TO! Just know I've got that one darn Color or Print Just saw It! But Where oh Where Is It NOW! It was Blue should be in the Blues ? Darn it!

Um, yeah, I can relate. I do such a good job cleaning up I can't find anything. Just pile it on the cutting table where I can find it, OK?

Just checking back in to report I found the flippin' honey bun roll. Now I've lost my momentum. The sewing room looks so neat I hate to mess it up. I should just jump right back in there and plan for another total clean out real soon - how does five years sound?! Organized chaos seems to work better for me.

My problem is that happens at home, at work, in the car.....I hate when that happens. You'll probably wake up in the middle of the night and know just where you put it.

I put my favorite purse patterns in a new place and can't find them for the life of me!

I know that feeling. I can't tell you how many things I have gone out and bought new fabric, rulers, patterns and other things because I have lost them in the rubble of my sewing room. I have a hard time with being neat. I admit it. I am a slob. I have been trying to clean my sewing room since the middle of August and it's still a mess.
