Mounting Evidence - Gnomes!

As a part of trying to rediscover the spark to getting back at carving and/or quilting I "cleaned" my carving area. The glimmer of interest was peeking through. Until, that is I discovered that two of my most unique tools went missing. These tools being special hand made eye punches. Special because they are so small (1/16" and 3/32"). Or for "diy", (.06 and .09). I use these on my very small carvings.The tools were not in their place. Nor were they anywhere on the bench.

I never take these tools away from the bench. They never have gone with me to carving group or anywhere.

There are only two possible answers. First, I just put them somewhere else and then have forgotten. Or, Gnomes are seeking some sort or revenge. Revenge for what? Oh, gnomes don't need a reason to play tricks.





Lets see, could it be my memory or could it be gnomes?

What's the mystery? Gnomey put them in his pocket when he left. They'll show up when the crocus start pushing through the snow!
