Awesome stash Joan!


I have 7 current WIPs...I love finishing more than starting projects
so this number is always low.
I'm usually just a one-at-a-time stitcher but I currently have 1
knitting and 1 cs project going (and some crocheted crosses that I do
only occasionally).

As for patterns I'd guess I have about 20-25 in my stash at this moment.
I probably have that many in one *file folder*!!! 20-30 file folders,
plus kits...plus my 20 or so years of Just Cross Stitch issues and a few
scattered issues of other titles...well, I'll let you do the math! I
guess I'm more a pattern collector than stitcher.

The thing that frustrates is that my tastes are constantly changing
Guess I don't have *that* problem!

So come clean ladies...how big is your stash? Any tips for keeping it
manageable?
File folders by subject: floral, animals, babies, a couple of
designer-specific ones, etc. (I am a librarian, after all). 2 file
drawers in the bottom of the stitching cabinet I designed and my dad
built for me plus a 3rd drawer for my kits. 4 parts cabinets for my
various flosses & beads with perle cottons hanging on the inside of the
door of my cabinet. I think I have pics of it in my rctnp folder if
you're interested.

If worries can cure your sickness, prolong your life, or replace
happiness, then go ahead and worry! If they can't, why worry?

Enjoy every moment of your life...there is no second chance.
