It happens to me all the time. These days I put it down to age, but over 30 years ago I couldn't find a Volvo estate car in a multi story car park; and it had bike racks on the top! I looked on the level I'd left it and then every other level and back to where I was sure I'd left it............... still no car so I phoned a friend to say the car had been stolen and to pick up the children from school, I had to find a public phone in those days. Went for a final look before I phoned the police and there was the car, just where I'd left it. Go figure!

substitute pressing sheet
My pressing sheet was purchased as an Oven Liner at the (big box) lumber center. It's a teflon sheet that is heat resistant to 500 degrees. I have found them in tan, black, and white. I think the purchase price was $2 on sale.
Can't guarantee that it won't get lost though.

LOL, this is one that hits so close to home. Just last month I was doing the same thing, tearing through my quilting closet looking for my pressing sheet. Never did find it so ended up buying another at LQS when I was there a couple of weeks later. I know it will appear when I least expect it to. Then last week I was looking for a spool of thread that was for my hand applique I'm working on, again couldn't find it, went through thread bins 3 times and then an aha moment it was on my sewing machine I use for quilting classes.
