    I can lose things as I'm using them. Have to shuffle through my fabric I'm working on to find things. Just can't understand how they can disappear like that. LOL

    Yep...all the time! But, of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most (quote)

    Me Too!!

    If I can't find something, I give myself a time limit to find it-- Usually later that day or next I find it. Not only do I have to look for my things but I spend part of the day looking for items that DH can't find--Ahlz. Fun getting old.

    Yep! Lost my Ginghers and hunted for days. I told DH I was getting a new pair so the others would come home. They did! : )

    I'm ready to finish up a BOM that is awesome - lots of applique and stuff. Can't find the pattern to do appliques and finish up! Hopefully, I can borrow one - that way, I'll find it. Happens every time!

    I just went through the same thing last week which caused me to pull fabrics out of cabinets and resort but still couldn't find the two items I had lost but I did find lots of beautiful fall fabrics I had forgotten I had bought!!

    This is true. My son moved to another Province and I have some of his and DDIL's things stored in my sewing room under two of my big tables. I could be storing fabric under there!!
