speaking of losing things

i spent much of last week tearing my studio and house apart looking for a small quilt that i had set aside to mail to it's new owner. while i wasn't looking it vaporized into thin air. i am VERY thankful that it's new owner took the news very gracefully and i am in the process of creating a "replacement". searching for that piece made me think of ALL the various things i have lost over the years.... and a quilt i made on that topic a few years ago..aptly titled "where does it all go?" . i made it in 2001 (and i still know where it is ) the first semester i was back in school for the "forks. knives, and spoons" themed show. i have added a few priceless mementos to it over the years...

above is a lost ...and subsequently found (MONTHS later) prescription for adderall....how approriate? after all, if i could keep track of the prescription i wouldn't need it....;-) after that i started having them sent directly to my drugstore...

What a wonderful collection of items that might wander. Since I live alone I can't find anyone to blame for losing things. My most egregious loss was a red turtleneck - all I could think of was that I left it at the doctor's office! Del

That is wonderful! i had thought about making a similar themed quilt only making it an homage to Saint Anthony- the finder of lost things. I have called upon his servbices quite a few times :)
