We have downsized,due to circumstances,3 times.DH never had a lot of hobby interests......so cutting back wasn't a problem for him.My cookbook collection went,making clothes for DDs went too.Computer & Ipad took over my reading.I still have one medium box for yarn & needles.Quilting took over every space we had.Interest is gone,so need to sell my machine & all that goes with it. Now & then I look at the stacks of fabric & wonder what was I thinking?
Neither DDs or Grdaughter have any interest in sewing-quilting ....so what is left when the bell tolls for me will probably end up at Goodwill.That's ok,I had lots of enjoyment from "my stuff".
