Taking a necessary break from my Steampunk quilt. It seems I CAN'T FIND the blocks I have already completed for my "grunge" quilt which were going to be the basis for my reinvented Steampunk quilt.
I went to the drawer where I was sure they were stored and found lots of really exciting fabric that I've been in the process of collecting but no quilt blocks.
Tried my second and third guesses and still no blocks. I thought I was organized. Apparently, not.
This is a challenge quilt that I started with a friend. She already has beautiful wool applique flowers in her border. I have thoughts of putting this in the Sauder Quilt show this year but already it's the middle of March and the show is the end of April. Maybe I should aim for next year.
This afternoon, as I was taking my time viewing the exhibits at the Michigan Historical Museum, my grandson thought I was taking too long. He told me to "just keep moving Gamma and focus".
Would a little more focus find my quilt blocks or get my applique done?

do you think maybe he's heard that phrase from someone else from some other time?!
"Now, where did you last have them?" !!! I just hated that question when I was a kid - if I knew THAT I wouldn't be looking all over the place for them! In a bag to take somewhere? A box under a table? A suitcase since it's empty and just taking up space unless there's something in it? GOOD LUCK!

Prayer to St. Anthony --- the patron saint of "lost things" ---"Tony, Tony, look around. something's lost and must be found". Haven't thought about putting stuff in an empty suitcase!
