Just present her with a photo of what you have and an IOU for the finished project by a certain date.

So no luck on finding the angels and I give up after tearing up and cleaning the sewing room. To make matters worse my hubby says they were sitting on the table before you cleaned it...oh well.

I made a trip to the LQS and picked up some alternate blue and yellow fabric and will toss together a table runner and give that to her with her handmade ornaments. Not going to stress over not finding them..there is always Christmas next year and I have labeled and put up the remaining angel and matching fabric for the wall
hanging.

Thanks everyone for your kind words and suggestions.

I read somewhere that lost things are usually found within 18 inches of where they are supposed to be. It's worked for me. [Also St. Anthony is great and I don't think you have to be Catholic.]

Take a deep breath and and use this as a mantra, "I did not toss them and they are in the house somewhere" I do that and eventually I find what I am looking for. Static electricity could have them stuck on fabric or sweaters or...

Backtracking like that helps me. I hope you find them.

I wasn't able to finish a rag quilt for m husband because he was always around when I tried to work on it...so I wrapped it anyway and will tell him I will finish once the holidays are over. Can you do the same with her gift?

Did this with 600.00 worth of money orders - did not have the St Anthony prayer then - I put them in plain envelope on computer desk - I remembered that - unfortunately My grandkids play with empty envelopes all the time and I happen to share that room with them - thinking my envelope was still in safe place I began to clean up the shared room finding envelopes everywhere because all four of my grandkids enjoyed playing post office. I started tossing envelopes and remember tossing one that was blank on outside - just like one that I thought was safe!!! Cant prove it but I am thinking thats where it went. Unfortunately I couldnt replace or cancel money orders since the copy I would need was still attached to original money orders. Expensive lesson learned - I hope someday I will find them lol
