Ever lose Pins and Needles?

I am normally very careful to try to avoid leaving Pins and Needles in places that will cause effects of injuring others or myself. This afternoon I sat down to do some more of the boarder for the Green Tea and Sweet Beans quilt. I have 2 sides done, working on the third now would be nice to have this completed next weekend as a trip to buy some backing will be in order sooner... any way I digress.

Normally I use the arm of the couch or the pin mouse, first reached to the arm of the couch for them and nope nothing zip ~ not a pin to be found! hmm most strange, OK some new ones from the mouse then, note a pin was in it... not wanting to accuse of the two legged members of the house, that would just not be fair! no not at all...

:)

This was most puzzling until a few minutes later I saw the culprit...

Thief, ever so innocent!
Miss Tigga jumped up to offer her assistance! sitting on the arm of the couch! yes this is like 'The Cat sat on the mat'! Carefully she pulled one pin out.. and spat it out fortunately it landed in my sewing bag, then another and another and so on! I even found a needle with thread beside it on the floor in front of where I sew most evenings...

Although she thought it was a great game... not so sure the sewer in the house...

Update: 07/06/2010 ~ found yet more pins today on the floor that I had missed
