    I collect churches, fabric, and things that look like the forties, Maybe like little people nick knacks. I have a thimble cvollection that a friend started me on and my DH was in the Navy then and got me some from overseas. Oh and prisms to hang in my windows, so I have rainbows everyday, if the sun is shinning,

    It seems that I collect quilt patterns and quilt books. That needs to cease so I can make more room for fabric. :wink:

    my days of collecting are over. I enjoy my aprons, old linen, old embroidery, handkerchiefs, hummels, snowbunnies, small old sewing things. I don't seek out these treasures but..if I come across something I get it. I am working on a handkerchief quilt too.

    I collect anything dragonfly. I've dedicated my home office to those. Oh and I love hand made dolls/bunnies. Come to think of it I have a new pattern for a doll that I might start soon.
