Looking for something?

The administration of Clare's Craftroom would like to advice the public of a situation that has arisen due to the massive cleanup in the Craftroom . Multiples of sewing tools have surfaced and have been placed in the Lost Property Department .Please check these items carefully as some of these could be yours .
Have you mislaid one of these?
or these?

maybe these?


Well surely they can't all be mine !

    Yes they can.That's what happens when you have a massive clean out you find that all your sewing stuff has secretly been multiplying behind your back....hehehe I'm discovering the smae phenonemon has been happening in my sewing room :) Barb.

    I guess at least you will never run out of tools for your hobbies. Looks like they've been up to something?? Hope your new space is providing you with plenty of inspiration.

    I can relate Clare... everytime I need a tape measure I can't find one so buy another. Then one day when I don't need a tape measure I find a dozen and wonder how come we have so many. Seems you might have the same problem... [giggle]

    Hi Clare.
    I found your blog via Three Button's and I thoroughly enjoyed reading your posts.
    As for the doubles and triples of the same thing, a smart person once told me that a true crafter never has enough of what they need to be a true crafter.
    I have taken these words of wisdom as my mantra when I am out shopping for something that I know I have, think I need, or just can't be sure if it's something I'll use or not. LOL!
    Thanks for sharing. I'll be back if you don't mind.
    Lois.

    It seems to me that most of us quilters seem to have that problem. Can never find something when needed but when found we dont need it anymore because we have bought another. I dont think I will be cleaning out my craftroom, just too much problems it seems!!!

    Scary thought - what do those sewing tools get up to when we are not looking!!

    A great collection of sewing tools just waiting to be spread around again.

    I'm having this same problem, but with fabric. I buy some, and forget about it and have to go out and buy more and more...

    LOL after the shop is ready to be moved into my studio will also be moved into it - I am hoping to find all of the things that i have lost - Too numerous to count - I did get a giggle at all of the measuing tapes - I can NEVER find one even though I own numerous ones!!
