I have been on a hunt ....in my sewing room , I broke the "tray" on my sewing machine and I knew I had a new one there , so the hunt started five days later I had been into just about everything in my room ,no sign of it but I had the neatest cleanest room , I sat at the machine and thought I would just drown my sorrows in sewing , looked up towards the ceiling there on the top shelf with lots of little boxes was sitting my "tray' , I was over the moon , do you think the sewing room fairy was trying to tell me something . I found things I had forgotten I had , Treasures as my husband puts it . Cathy

We always put things in a safe place then misplace them until we are looking for something else, as you say we land up with a tidy clean room until the next time. Glad you found your tray. I misplaced an external hard drive from September until I found it last month in a place I had forgotten about and would never thought to look. Maureen

Congratulations on a great find. I usually don't find what I'm looking for until I go buy another one and when I put it away, low and behold there's the one I was searching for.
Welcome to Cute Embroidery. I'm glad you are here.

I am so glad you found it. I see items all the time in my sewing room until I need them. Then they play hide and seek.

Congratulations on finding your tray. Yesterday I found 2 items that I don't remember buying and have no idea what they were to be used for. If I use them for something else then I'll probably remember the original purpose, lol. Welcome to Cute.

That happens a lot ... You put it someplace to have easy access to it and forget it is there. Then the hunt is on. Good that you found it. Welcome to cute. You will find great people here and lots of info. Suzanne

This sounds so familiar. Just think of the great uses you have for all the new treasures you found. Create and enjoy. Glad you found your tray.

I did a similar hunt for a lost camera in my sewing room. Sat down one day in frustration and there is was on my left laughing at me.
Glad that you found a clean and tidy sewing room in the process. And lots of treasures to make and finish.
