Was just wondering if anyone knows how many quilt books/magazines they really have. I have two+ bookshelves full but have never counted them all and always adding new ones?? Thought this would be interesting??

I have probably 20 mags at the most. I got rid of about 10 years of mags a couple of years ago. You don't realize how they add up until you're over-run with them :)

At this point, not too many. I've been selling them! :D
There are two, possibly three that I will keep - the absolute two keepers are Kaffee Fassett books. Pure eye candy!

I only keep 2 shelves of quilt books. It's like my closet - if something new is added, something must go.

oh i am in the wrong class here!! i have trouble throwing them out or whatever. my tastes have changed over the years of quilting that if i had pulled out the patterns i first wanted and thrown the rest away, i'd have no patterns that i like! i have cut down on the subscriptions i carry. but still have them all!! years worth of about 5 different mags. i have gone back and used some i have marked. some i still want to do before i die--my bucket list.
