Hi megan!
Quest items won't disappear like so many other items so it may be possible for you to find it by just spending time searching around to the places you have been between getting the shroud and realising you have lost it. OR
There is another solution - how brave do you feel??? hmmm??
Check this thread:

The code for the shroud is
ED 00 00 00 04 00 00 00 00 00 Shroud of Elsera
MAKE A BACKUP COPY OF YOUR SAVE GAME BEFORE TRYING THIS!
Save it to another directory entirely!
