Now this weekend, a quilting buddy stops by and in our visit, I mentioned the fabric and go to get it to show her and get her opinion as to whether or not it would work. HMMMMM not in closet! Did I move it to my sewing room? CRS! All weekend I'm trying to remember. SEARCH closet, SEARCH sewing room, multiple times! . . . wander through house trying to find it. Where is it?
Now I know there must be a quilters BLACK-HOLE! The same quilting buddy had a pattern that she pattern that she had purchased years ago- disappear into that hole. And now my bag of fabric. :?:
Is there a BLACK-HOLE at your house?
Yes there is. And I have been trying to find it, but it keeps moving around in the house. Sometimes in the kitchen with the peeler or kitchen shears, next in the laundry room with the color catchers that I can't wash my fabrics without. Then in the bathroom with one of my lotions or makeups, earrings are another favorite. Last but not least---scissors! It has had at least one pair of scissors for quite sometime.
I keep yelling at it to give them all back- and like the commercial- "and I want it now!"
Alas, hasn't worked yet.
