Do you collect vintage embroidery patterns? Do you know anyone who does?

I have been fascinated when I see them at estate sales. The care given to varied assortment of items and wondered why the families did not appreciate them as much as the owner.

Etsy has a wonderful assortment of designs. I found a healthy assortment of designs currently on Ebay. 

I also found an ebook with a collection of 15,000 designs. 

I would love  to hear from you creative embroidery collectors and how you use the designs. Also, please share links to your collections or send them to me and I will post.
