She turned out gorgeous. I have started collecting fabrics. As I am still a fairly new quilter. Trying to create one of those stashes everyone else seems to won. It is slow go…No local fabric stores fo rme without driving a minimum of an hour in any direction. I collect a few book series. Ann Rice. Christine Feehan’s dark seriesis one of my most favorites. I am slowly trying to get some quilting acrylic ruler/ templates. Just basics for me.
How gorgeous! I used to collect green Depression glass. I guess you could say I collect dust right now!
What a fun idea – giving here a 3D skirt.
What beautiful work! I collect those little Mexican pottery piggy banks. The kind with no hole on the underside. They are so colorful and each has a different pattern painted on. Thank you for the wonderful give away chance!
I collect several things: Salmon Falls pottery, Blue Willow China, and Santas.
This is beautiful! I collect pig figurines!
I love the colours on this one! I don’t collect anything, although I do have a small number of lizard items.

I have collected depression glass in the Iris pattern. Now I seem to have a collection of fabric. It is much more available than the glass is.
Currently, I realized I collect fabric and un-finished projects… But my favorite collection is photographs of my children right now!
Oh she’s beautiful! I collect non-fiction books, but I’ve made an effort in the past year to cull my collection down to the ones I really love and re-reference.

Thanks for participating.
I collect cats, real ones to my hubby’s dismay!
No real collections, unless you count fabric and books. That is a stunning little quilt.
I have a small collection of old books (early-mid 1900’s), mainly cooking and sewing. I love the peek into the past that you get through them. Shiny baubles make me happy too! Many thanks!
I usually try not to collect anything – I grew up in a family of collectors and if they ever caught wind that you had three or more of anything, you’d find yourself with another five come Christmas, so I’ve made a long term valiant effort to avoid collecting things. But… I do have several hundred books (somehow I feel it doesn’t really “count” if it’s books), and probably a couple hundred cds. And the less said about my fabric stash the better, I imagine 😀
Anyway, this Magpie Girl is as lovely as they always are – I really like how you’ve quilted the background, that flower is really nice.
This is lovely!
Well, I collect fabric. And vintage notions. And vintage Pyrex. Those are my current obsessions!

just gorgeous!! I collect dust. Yes. Because I collect fabric, buttons, ribbon, zippers… These things make the housework less pressing, somehow…. 😉
How adorably gorgeous! I collect lists- to do lists actually. Seems I am always making them, using them, losing them, needing them, ignoring them, etc…. ha!
Actually I dont’ collect any specific type of object, but more of any little trinket, art, chatchki that floats my whimsy.

Oh that’s so beautiful. My close friend at work tells me I should be a raven, I get easily distracted by pretty shiny things, doesn’t matter what they are, even the snow glittering is enough to send me swooning.

And here I am, trying for the next girl 🙂
I’m collecting sheep…and fabric, I guess. Because since I started sewing, I have gather boxes and boxes full of fabrics. Oh! And buttons 🙂
