What began over 30 years ago as a small collection of matching fabrics of the kind that could easily be hidden under the couch, in the trunk of the car or behind large cereal boxes in the pantry has exploded into an entire room of beautful material. Added to the fabric collection has been books and magazines all centered around quilting. For the collective good of my family, I now work downstairs in a room surrounded by fabric. No more sneaking it into the house like I felt I had to do years ago. Life is good. So are collections!
