I stitch therefore I stashed

Yes, I stitched therefore I stashed, and because I stashed all my files is either double or tripled with hard copy, without hard copy, in pdf, etc. I begun a week ago cataloging all my stuff and I am not finished yet. Looking for a particular copy from my files is harder than going to the stockist and buy a new one. I was normally an organized person but then. Hoarding and collecting patterns for over 20 years is really too much. I have a feeling that when I find something nice, I couldn't part with it, so making a copy before giving it away got to be done first. I am so lucky to have lots of stuff free from people I know and I never say no when they are freely given. Funny I still am looking for some stuff I want to add to my collection. I dream of making a big quilt from little stuff with crafty people and animals design. Here I made some progress on putting them in one album My sew much more collectibles . I got to search more of my files for some I still couldn't figure out where I stashed them.

Meanwhile I started with this design by Ellen M. Stroh already making it my second small project. (The first one is Counting on u of precious moments ) I really don't know yet, how I am going to finish it as a quilt. I hope I can make up my mind along the way. Nevertheless I still have a long way to go.

My big projects are still number one on my list. Plus pieces I make for others as I promised.
