    Anything to do with quilting. Lots of threads so I do not run out. Bobbins so I do not have to wind one when the thread is gone. Scissors for fabric, paper, thread clipping. Anything that has to do with quilting.

    Actually I try to stay "in control" when it comes to the fuzzbunnies. They usually consist of cat hair and threads joined together.

    Well, I have to start out with baskets, to put all the fabric and unfinished projects in.....then dishes!! I can probably set a table differently every day of the year with my stash!

    I have a baby food jar of Mt ST. Helen ash that we collected from our front porch..

    Gray hair wasn't my collection idea but it tagged along all on it's own. It cost to much to keep it away.
    I found free , download quilt patterns on the internet, my printer screams enough already . Most of the patterns are new to me and free is great.. :)
