I just recently went through alot of my stuff and it was like giving away a child! lol But I had to do it. I picked out a few patterns that I might try if I ever got around to doing another cross stitch pattern, but gave the rest away. Same thing with my crocheting and so on. I got a binder and some plastic sleeves to store the few patterns that I cut out of the mags. Even had to do it with my quilt books. Hubby is a tyrant and sees it all as trash. Don't get me started....grrrr
