    The things I collect that are not quilt related are birdhouses and collectible spoons. I probably have at least 40 birdhouses and about 300 spoons that my children have purchased for me from all over the world. I have a daughter that lives almost half time on a cruise ship (her husband is chief officer for Holland America... :D ). My spoon collection started out by inheriting my grandmother's spoon collection after she passed away.

    Magazines and patterns. Running out of room for mags, so now I have this board and all the great free pattern links, advice and tutorials I am letting my subscriptions slide.

    I've gone through collecting pfases. If I could win the lottery I would have an amazing collection of machines. Good cutting tools and beautiful threads make me happy and I endeavor to collect them.

    I haven't read all 21 pages yet, but I definitely collect quilt PATTERNS! Books and magazines come in a very close second.
