I also have more designs than I will ever use. I like to know I have it if I need it. (That is my excuse, and I'm sticking to it lol) Like you I often browse thought them. I have made loads of things in my mind, and to me that is good therapy. Hugs Shirley
52676I think about that often .... but it has become a habit to me to look around and collect and buy some too - I think I probably do something good to the digitizers which deserve the small amounts of money and hope many small amounts of us collectors may make a
salary for these talented and hard working people.
And: Collecting beauty is a good point of view as you said, dear anssmile
My sons say I have to live forever to make use of the designs :-)

If I have a bit of money at all it goes straight to get something else of beauty! I have a lot of wish lists...
54555Wellllllllll yessssssssss i can't pass up those buck designs Can you???hugs
360368I never know what I will use...and sometimes it is something that I thought I would never use! It's always a surprise...
313713Me,well of course I'm going to use them, Probably tomorrow or the next day or the next, And there is always that sale that I can't resist or a Cutie posts something I want to make, besides that it's just fun to have an unending assortment to choose from when i do decide to use them

67271i just think "I will have a use for this design sometimes!"
520Well said as I also keep adding to the huge stash of designs I couldn't stitch out in multiple lifetimes.
168887Hi 'ansmile', I enjoyed your post. I think it becomes addictive after a while to continue to accumulate the beautiful designs - too irresistible to avoid. We always conjoue up the thought that 'one day' they could come in handy. But rather be on embroidery than alcohol or drugs!!

There is just one problem - I do the same with fabric, and coloured pencils, and water colour paint, and graphite pencils, and basically everything to do with creating stuff!

Me too .... addicted to all kind of handcrafts since I was a child - crocheting, knitting, sewing, drawing, now added
embroidery by machine, sometime ago did make all the clothes for my 5 children - and I cannot say "Goodbye" to the things I do not need anymore :-)
But when thinking it over I really made a lot of useful things including hard work like tiling, laying wooden floors and other work in house and garden

My son forced me to get rid of my beads (semi precious stones, etc!) so at least that is off my list of things to get. And we have a space problem. But clipart and embroidery designs reside on the computer, so I mainly concentrate on them at the moment...
