I totally have them. My favorite rotary cutter is missing. It vanished while I was using it. I layed it down and it was gone. I didn't even leave the area so I know no one took it. lol. I am begining to think I am losing my mind.

I know I have Gremlins because I lost my mind a long time ago. Last year, I cut out a pair of slippers. Made one and turned around to start the second one, and it was gone and has never appeared. Most have been a one legged Gremlin that took it.

I can tell you a sure-fire way to find something that's gone missing. It works every time, guaranteed.
All you have to do is buy a new one.
The old one will reappear, just like magic!
:wink: :roll:

Oh, yeah...but I blame the cats!!! Not too long ago, I picked up the magazine/pattern book and had forgotten I'd left my seam ripper on it. Well, it went flying. I looked, looked, cleaned, looked and couldn't find it. A month later, I went to the shelving and got out stuff to give my daughter. There was a box on the bottom shelf, and guess what I found....yip, the seam ripper. Those darn cats are hiding thing from me!!!!
