I have large, medium, and small 3-ring binders that I use for some that I separate by designer or theme. I have many cardboard boxes, as well as plastic drawer type bins full of patterns and kits. I have boxes of different types of fabric, embellishments, thread, etc. Ive been cross stitching for about 24 years, so Ive been collecting patterns at least that long. I have a room that is just my craft room, but it is over-flowing and I keep adding! One day Im going to organize it! LOL! Ill never come close to doing all of just the kits I have bought over the years, let alone all the patterns. I dont know whether Im a collector or a hoarder, lol!
You sound a lot like me! I have been trying to talk the hubby into letting me quit college so I can stitch full time. Thats not working so far!

Sounds like youre a little bit of both. Get the best of both worlds! Ive been doing cross-stitch nearly as long, and my stash is fairly pathetic in comparison. One file in our filing cabinet with charts, a shoe box of spares and a small clear plastic box with my WIP. I just hate having too many WIPs going at one time, so I never seem to collect much extra. Sad really. I wish I had a craft room :( One day maybe :) Back on topic though... Loving the angel pattern! Is it 3D?
The angel pattern is from Joy of the Needle called Angel in the Middle. There is a great site called Welcome Stitchery that I got all of these from and they were on sale for .99 to 1.99. I stumbled on
