    Books. My husband says that my hobby is not doing crafts, it's collecting craft items.

    Books and magazines-and I also have a collection of eggs-all sorts, from every country I've been to, from real blown-out ones, stones, crystal, wood, porcelain, and I even have one with the ash from Mt St Helen's! Now, If I could only get a cabinet to display them in in our new house, I could take them out of the boxes they are packed in!

    That is a beautiful machine. What is the decal design name for this one? I know it but just doesn't come to mind.

    Golly, not really sure I consider my books and magazines a "collection", although I do have a ton of them. I "need" those for my reference library. I do have too many sewing machines, different ages and types, but am trying to sell off some of them and just keep the one's I use plus 4 antiques that I keep on display. I also love my thimbles -- they are a true collection.
