    Patterns, patterns, patterns. Better than reading a book.

    Wow..I collect books, sewing machines, crafty items, but these days it is thread. 40 years of dressmaking, embroidering, and quilting = cones of serger thread (hundreds), spools of sewing thread, quilting thread, sulky, robison Anton for embroidery and on and on!

    pin cushions, thimbles, patterns, quilting friends, books. I also obsessively collect and print out free patterns from online. I must have a stack 18" high at least.

    Right now I seem to be buying many more threads than anything else. And I notice it seems to be getting more expensive than ever!
